Go ahead and feel comfy.  There are a number of folks working on other 
solutions (scrapers, etc).  The problems with those solutions are 
questionably legality and possibility that the data sources would change 
things w/o notice.

My 85% number is for the free or pay scalable solution being worked on 
by the MythTV (and other)  devs.  Other numbers I've made up are 50%, 
then 75%... it keeps getting better.
