continuing to watch your old video tapes on your old VCR is not an option after the upgrade and registration deadline for these infringement devices has passed.
Actually, for the last one or two years it's already illegal to sell or re-sell (even used) VCRs without macrovision shit. What will determine the outcome of this war is future availability of universal openly-programmable computing platforms (aka pee-cees). We will probably see regulations following those for handguns: for the first few decades everyone sported them, then they became heavily regulated. So expect a 5-year federal care for possession of an "unlocked" PC within one mile from schoolyard or an airport. ===== end (of original message) Y-a*h*o-o (yes, they scan for this) spam follows: Yahoo! - Official partner of 2002 FIFA World Cup http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com
