Just to further underline the divergence between morality and legality, it's worth noting that under current copyright law, it is illegal in the United Kingdom to record (i.e. 'DVR') any television broadcast.

In the Netherlands, making a copy of copyrighted material is legal for personal use. There’s a levy on blank media such as DVD-Rs which is shared between copyright holders.
