If such a devices existed (haven't looked) its highly likely that they would record to disc with the HDCP intact. So depending on how the 'broadcast' flag was used the same limitations will apply (no recording, recording limited to x days etc etc)
All its doing is returning power to the broadcasters and make us watch tv when they want us to, rather then when we want to!
So no recording of series of entire series of shows then watching them in one. Oh no thats what the box sets are for!
