We heard you the first time, but please don't post to this list about 
sickbeard.  While you did say that you have subscriptions to various 
services--even some you don't use--so that you "pay for content"***, 
sickbeard is an application that finds files to download, some of which 
are TV shows/movies, and some of which are not necessarily legal to 
download.

Because of #5 at 
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Mailing_List_etiquette#Anything_else_I_should_be_aware_of.3F 
, and the fact that--even if you only ever download 
non-copyrighted/legal-to-download content, the application has a 
reputation for being used for copyright violations, so discussion of it 
doesn't belong on this list.  Feel free to e-mail the OP directly or 
talk somewhere else, but please don't do so on this list.

That said, because of the context of your post--regardless of how you're 
using sickbeard--your post can be seen as an attempt to incite others to 
copyright violations.  So, it's really in your own best interest, too, 
not to post anything about it, here, in a publicly-archived mailing list.

Thanks,
Mike

*** I quoted "pay for content" primarily because unless you actually 
watch a particular show /through/ a paid service, the service itself 
will most likely never pay any money toward the content 
owner/creator/... because they pay on a per-view basis.
