-- I don't distribute it beyond the scope of my cable subscription -- i.e.,
-- no one gets access to the data who wouldn't already have access to it
-- if they used my PC.

Ah! I had misinterpreted the discussion. This is unlikely to require permission, since no-one else will be receiving the feed. Arthur
