I must admit I hadn't considered this. I agree, sharing BBC shows which aren't commercially available is one thing, sharing commercially available recordings of stage shows or whatever is a different thing entirely. I wouldn't want the site closed down just because I'm too lazy or stingy to shell out a few quid!

It's probably all covered by copyright and there probably isn't any legal difference, but it does feel different to me. Some "grey" websites like UKNova operate a similar policy.
