My Linux knowledge is close to zero, but if XML data is useful to you, try

Someone is kindly hosting XML files of all the Australian TV guide data,
scraped off NMSN each day.
That forum also has members getting data using something called
XMLTVdownloader (which I use, but it's a Windows script) and
JavaXMLTVgrabber which is Java so might be of use.
