SageTV Licenses PlayReady???
Anyone want to make a official statement about what this means?

SageTV Licenses PlayReady
By Andrew Van Til | Published Friday, 20 August 2010

I'm not that familar with what the different types of PlayReady licenses mean, but it looks like SageTV now has a PlayReady Master Agreement Licensee. With names like Netflix and SiliconDust also on the list hopefully it's a precursor to good things to come.
Thanks to cyberwolf for pointing this out.

Official statement! Ha, that'll be the day.

One day hopefully I'll get an email notification for SageTV 7.1 Beta, and while reading the lengthy list of notes, I'll find, probably not even bolded, the following
- Full support for Ceton, SD, etc CableCARD tuners has been added along with capaility to playback all protected content anywhere in the SageTV ecosystem

It'll be right next to the line that proclaims:
-Minor update to file.sys because it crashes Joe's computer

Basically it's a license and SDK you buy from Microsoft that lets you play DRMed content on various devices.

I'm right there with you. It's pretty sad that drm prevents me from playing a game I purchased because the drm package isn't compatible with vista/7. I had to get a hack to bypass the drm for a game I OWN... Really?
