Seek professional help. but my experience with downloading TV shows suggests >that piracy is working better than ever. This wasn't piracy, it was time-shifting. You, as an American with a TV, could watch the show at X; you as an American can save it and watch it at Y, too. The videotape-timeshift-legal-decisions didn't say anything about VHS vs. BETA vs. DiVX formats. You could put it on Hollerith cards but the greens would be pissed. The fact that part of your video system is distributed in a few million homes should be irrelevent.
