  if i buy tv tuner card and record every week, i also dunno if it's illegal leh.
  
  but anything that can earn money, copyright owners will chase after u and say it's illegal. if they can collate every episode and release a set to sell to the market, if they plan to do that, u're owned. they will wipe u out just so that they can have a big fat bank account.
  
  u might not believe it but warner music even wanted to hunt down people who make programs that pull lyrics from the net or sites that offer song lyrics, because of their "shared belief that songwriters must be fairly compensated for their work and that legitimate web sites with accurate lyrics must not be undermined by unlicensed web sites."

  tv tuner cannot work unless you got a superd high gain antenna to receive their broadcast all the way from taiwan. bt should be a better option provided someone else are 'sharing' them.
