B*st*rds.
The cable company has just joined the Axis of Evil, otherwise composed of
insurance companies, certain lawyers, politicians, and used-car salesmen.
Why would they do this? The same channels were encrypted on the firewire
output as on the raw cable. It p*ss*s me off, though, because I can no
longer record two ATSC channels at once.
