Re: Australian tv grabber

This is the right place.

I don't know if this is a issue Down Under or not, but do you have the
legal right to redistribute the data?

Most of the commerical web sites allow access for personal use with the
restriction of not redistributing it.  That's a major reason why the
XMLTV project distributes grabbers, not data.

If you do have distribution rights, someone with an interest (i.e.
"itch to scratch") could write  a grabber and I don't see a problem
with including it in the XMLTV distribution.
