Danny O'Brien from the Electronic Frontier Foundation sez,
Vista users are complaining that Media Center refuses to let them record broadcast digital TV shows on NBC.Here's a screenshot of what they're seeing.
After we won the fight to stop the Broadcast Flag three years ago, over-the-air digital TV shouldn't have any copy controls — and if it did, Microsoft shouldn't have to obey them.
Is it a bug in Vista's DRM systems? Did Microsoft and NBC cut a deal? What other receivers out there are going to obey the broadcasters instead of their owners?
(Thanks, Danny!)
