As for the stupid comment about proprietary hardware, are you telling me that Unbox isn’t using proprietary methods/technology to ensure the content isn’t “misused?” Both iTunes and Unbox have their pluses and minuses….

I'd guessing they intentionally coordinated this so as to not cannibalize Unbox sales.</p> Ah, that explains why the quality of the full episodes on nbc.com have suddenly become much worse.
