By the way, I'm still waiting to hear where you got your law degree from and your bar number and state.

kthxbye

actually is was not the recording industry that sued Sony over their Betamax VTR (what vcr were called in the case) but UNIVERSAL CITY STUDIOS, INC

i would suggest that anyone who honestly "believes" that recording a tv show is illegal should read the case law at the url provided above. Justice Stevens explictly stated it recording a tv show for personal consumption at a later time (time shifting) was NOT an infringement of the exclusive rights granted by the copyright act.
