Broadcast flag dead... for now
Engadget is reporting that the U.S. Court of Appeals has struck down the FCC's broadcast flag which limits what kinds of digital content can be recorded. The flag was going to force TV manufacturers to build technology into their sets (starting on July 1 of this year) that would recognize the flag and prevent users from recording content that was flagged by the broadcaster.

I'm not sure what recourse the FCC has for appealing this decision; however, I can bet the MPAA already has their lobbyists working on it.
