Not that anyone abides by that.

As we've already covered, the HD Fury can perfectly legitimately copy the live HD output from a linear channel broadcast through the Tivo to a PC or laptop in unencrypted format. The law explicity allows this (see previous link).
What spiderplant is saying is that a recording on the Tivo HDD can't legitimately be moved to a NAS box. See my previous reply for my response to this in relation to the spirit of the law.
[Edit] Also VM T&Cs say the following is not permitted - "a. copying or recording all or any part of the television services or premium television services
except as may be permitted by law for your own private, domestic and non-commercial use (and if this kind of copying becomes illegal in the future you must stop doing it);"
My bold. So there are no additional considerations with regards VM T&Cs as was previously hinted at by Stuart.
