The Federal Court has ruled in favor ot Bell Rogers et al. and awarded almost 30 million dollars (which they probably cant collect) against 2 companies and one individual.
Most likely a shot across the bow to others

As Calhame alluded to, I'm guessing that they are hoping the decision will scare off others; now that they have an actual court ruling that rejects the arguments of the vendors.

This will only drive business to non-resident sellers (i.e. eBay, Alibaba, etc.). The difference being you'll have to set it up yourself.

I got my IPTV. As long as my IPTV remains untouched I am very happy.
I'll still pay for cable, but It sure is nice to be able to watch the American channel without a Sim Sub cutting in.
