That's not what I said or implied at all.
by "any show" it doesn't mean any show broadcast available.
it means "any show" he HAS or is publicly available.
it is you that assumed it must be something illegal, which is a fallacy of old way of
thinking.

No doubt,
then, that your friend is doing this quite illegally. I
would like to know what internet/cable/whatever service he is using
that not only *provides* but *allows* every show on every network over
TCP/IP.
I'm not sure I follow this. If this guy uses MythTV to save all the
shows to NAS for time-shifted viewing, how is that "illegal"?
It's not, but that's not what you implied. You implied that he has some
special setup with any show on-demand. What he has in reality is
regular broadcast television, merely timeshifted. He still gets shows
as they are broadcast.
