The television broadcasters don't *always* provide the guide information and
in most cases when they do it is only for the current and next program
(so-called Now and Next). It is rare for a station to provide even a day's
worth of day, though I believe some Channel Nine's do.

Icetv provides a way to insert up to 7 days worth of FTA data into the
Topfield and other software PVRs - including MythTV soon once they approve
some documents and a grabber.
