I think the proper way to characterize what Hollywood is doing is to say:
If you want your PC to play in the entertainment space, then it must
obey OUR rules. There is nothing in the Broadcast Flag rules to
prevent you from building a completely legal PC media center. It is
just a matter of preventing your customer of doing things that they
have come to expect from a PC. But compliance is feasible...at a
price.
