Wow.. This is great.. and illustrates how digital and open systems are tearing
the "ownership" of content:

This guy's using his own dishes to gather content and is basically running
his own "cable" via WiFi to his neighbors (via MythTV)..
You thought Pirate RADIO was going to cause a stir? Just wait until the
content police start trying to kill off THIS concept!

p.s. Looks like I'm going to be doing a MythTV PVR project for the new book
LinuxToys2... If anyone here is running Myth.. gimme a holler off line.. I
wanted to compare hardware selection notes.
