Pro-Hollywood bill aims to restrict digital tuners

Clueless morons ... I wonder when some movie mogul is going to catch on to the fact that people remember movies, and demand mandatory mind erasure after every theater visit? Those memories are, after all, copyrighted "intellectual property"!

Proposal, backed by movie studios, aims to plug "analog hole" by banning sale of noncompliant digital devices.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
