I might point out that in some countries (Australia included) it is
strictly-speaking illegal to record broadcast TV shows on OTA channels
(at least that used to be the law, but IANAL so it may have changed in
the last decade).

So in a way, Myth also "promotes activities which may strictly speaking
be outside of the law" :)
