NBC Wants Piracy Filters on Home Network Hardware? → NBC TV

last time I looked TV was still free (OTA) and the shows are ALREADY paid for by the sponsors (i.e. commercials) so with this in mind, how do you 'pirate' something thats already free? It is NO different than using a dvr/vcr/tivo - none at all.

Movies (big-screen) now are a different story.. one we wo't get into here as this topic is for NBC (a TV network)
