Under the radar

[Long Al]

get_iplayer differs fundamentally from a VCR/PVR in that programs may be 
recorded without the use of an aerial feed and, therefore the need to 
acquire a TV Licence.
If Auntie Beeb could get us on "loss of revenue" what could the defence be?

How is using get_iplayer any different from having some form of video
recorder - other than it allows people to watch things they've missed -
which I could do anyway if I recorded all bbc content and kept it for a
week, which as far as I know is currently feasible, and as a licence
payer my right.
I know the providers may try to argue differently but they are fighing a
loosing battle with reality and the sooner the whole issue gets sorted
the better for all.
