Neat New Tool to Be Affected by Broadcast Flag
Posted by Ernest Miller
Gizmodo points out a truly nifty little product - an external TV tuner with a USB connection that you can use for your PC or laptop (New external USB TV tuner from Canopus). The system comes with software that will let you record your favorite shows... for now. I wonder how much more expensive the device will be after July 1, 2005. I also wonder how difficult it will be after July 2005 to transfer shows from your laptop (copied while on the road) to your legacy home network - the answer according to the FCC will be "impossible for the average consumer."
