Also TV can be streamed live over the internet without needing a TV card, so with your interpretation of the rules would mean that anyone with a computer and an internet connection would need a TV licence.

I give up ,you are obviously just arguing for arguings sake .Of course you can use the dvd or vhs or freestat ,they count as a device capable of recieving live transmission in their own right therefore requiring a licence even if you don't own a tv with which to watch the transmissions.I really don't know what is so hard about understanding this simple piece of legislation .
