The fact the copyright law does not, with some exceptions, allow you to copy copyrighted material, and the bulk of the stuff shown on TV is copyrighted.

My point actually wasn't so much what the law says, more that regardless of what the law says, the media companies seem happy to tolerate low quality copies, hence them allowing archiving to DVD/VCR, but only via a Composite connection.
