I don't think so.

Just because the law permits Boxee to do something, that doesn't
forbid Hulu from politely asking them not to, and Boxee voluntarily
conceding to their wishes.

I think Boxee is going along with what Hulu wants because they're
hoping the situation is temporary and they don't want to burn any
bridges in what could still be a successful long term relationship.
