If you're only capable of offering puerile comments (and not even an original one at that) instead of debating like an adult, it's time to end this conversation.

Not that archiving on a PVR can really be considered as archiving as the disc will eventually fail at some point.

Thinking about it, it's a good job that this law is widely ignored. If the late Bob Monkhouse hadn't of kept the many recordings that he made, hours and hours of content would have been lost forever. Some has even been used by the BBC to broadcast archive programming that they no longer held themselves.
The same goes for employees that 'stole' material destined for the bin.
The 'Missing believed wiped' archive is all the richer for it.
