No it's not!
you can stream any of your own content, or creative commons, or public content,
or free content online all you want.
There is absolutely NOTHING illegal about any of that!
If you want to stream your collection of home movies, or even other public things,
or say you have a band and stream your own music or videos, that's totally legit, and
your right.
and, you can also stream (download) from online sites, of any publicly broadcast material,
free,
or other content.
The original replier to my message "assumed" there was illegal activity and
wrote meaning and extra
words into my posting that were not there.
it's only the dinosaurs that think you can't enjoy media without doing something
questionable.

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"?
Using MythTV or a PVR to time shift is not a problem, but the origional
comment was "setup a NAS device and stream everything from online to their
systems"
and streaming online is a crime, as is distribution to others.
"from online to their systems" indicates someone is distributing them to him.
Had it been worded "from on air or live to their system" I would not have
commented.
