Yes/no: my three TV-channels use mythfilldatabase/tv_grab_nl, the radio
channels are using EIT, which I turned on after the recent crash I had
(using help I received after asking hwo to combine xmltv and EIT).
So before my mythbackend crash (like a week ago) I did not use EIT but
did see growth as posted about here.
