"What do you get when you combine open source MythTV personal video recorder software and open source Ubuntu? Why, it’s Mythbuntu! While it sounds like a potential next episode of Mythbusters, it is in reality the new pre-packaged, free operating system that includes MythTV for that TV viewing, recording, and time-shifting goodness that only open-source can bring you."



Two key features seem to be the wider support of TV tuners and the ability to ignore the broadcast copy-protection flag. Have any of you used this? What do you think?
