- Quite correct. No licensor would agree to allow us to use their licensed
- anime products on a closed circuit system where you could tape them. The
- system in question stops cable service to the affected room if the cable is
- disconnected from the television. This restriction has met the requirements
- of some licensors but research is ongoing. Keep watching the info file updates
- for more news.
