[Rathji]

For movies: I am pretty much weened from any questionable content. There are downloaded copies I do have for some movies where it was even remotely inconvenient to rip the copies that I own. Recent Disney movies are the prime example. I strongly feel that the initial legal ramifications from shared content will be felt with movies, which is why I have focused here. Anything newer, I tend to get on video on demand or ppv. Like you said, this content rarely gets repeated except for kids movies.

For TV, I have given up on switching from cable, the resistance from Mrs Rathji was just too great. The PVR handles most of my stuff but some series that the the family can't handle like Dexter, Breaking Bad etc are watched solely on transit, so rather than jumping through hoops to PVR>DVD>PC>tablet is just to much for multiple series at a time. My short term plans involve a homemade DVR on a simple video capture card to eliminate that hassle, but technically that's likely just as much of a copyright violation, so we'll see if it makes sense.
