[Nottingham] Media Centre Linux distro?

[David Rice]

I did dig into and it appears to be the case. The license is to receive 
broadcast signals from any source (including, inter alia, cable, 
satellite, web).
What seems a possible let out is it applies to 'live signals'. So you 
might argue, my machine records the signal and will not let me watch it 
until after a delay. But that's also included, else recording to tape or 
disk could get round it.
Whether it is true or not is up to the courts and as far as I'm aware 
that's the position they hold so I reckon that makes it true. :)
Regards
David
