HBO copy protects it shows.

What about PVR? TIVO? Apple TV? Does any one know if if you can rip a DVD from one of those?

Peace

The fight was recorded on Tivo. I thought I would be rid of tapes forever...guess not. I remember reading something about the Digital Lens having the ability to delete sub-code. I'll email Paul McGowan.

240zracer,

I'm with you 100 percent. It's really obscene what HBO charges for their PPV Boxing Events. I really wanted to watch that De LaHoya - Mayweather bout, but I wasn't prepared to shell out $60 for the one-time privilege.

I used to subscribe to HBO mainly for their boxing event coverage, but lately, all the high-profile fights cost big-bucks on PPV. A small consolation is that you can usually watch the bout on regular HBO a week later after you already know who won and how the fight went. No Thank You!!!

So I dropped HBO and won't be resubscribing. I can think of a lot of better ways to spend my money.

HBO is only a few bucks more and I watch some of the series they produce. The boxing is great too, but if they are trying to save boxing as a popular sport with high$$$ PPV - a big mistake. It is too bad you cant copy the programing, but the Sopranos, Deadwood, Big Love, Entourage, Rome... well frankly, they have me hooked.

I have all the Sopranos this season but have never watched an episode(or any season)on Tivo. I'll try to copy and see what happens. The funny thing is, if I rent the DVD's, I can burn them on the PC with no problems.
