I dont really see why it shoud have to cost the library much at all. No one said that the library has to give out CDs for free, eitehr let peolple bring them their own, or sell them at a small profit to pay off the computer.
You wouldnt exactly need a top of the line computer either, its just burning CDs. Any PC less than 5 years old should be more than enough. Try goign up to some big tech company and seeing if they could donate one of ther older machines. Its worth a shot.
The only real cost would be the time required to set up the system and support it.
That quotes my situation exactly. If I go to the kitchen to cook or eat or somthign, I might turn on the TV, watch whatever someone else has turned on, but aside form that, Im far more likely to download an shows that I actually do enjoy watching.
Watching movies on a TV? Comon, Ive got a 19" monitor sitting beside by bed, and all I have to do is browse the network to find just about anything I'd like to watch. TV shows? The same thing, go on over to Suprnova and get the torrent for anyhting Im interesed in watching. Oh no, they cut out all the commercials. That really hurts me.
The media could always be replaced though, if someone had access to the device it was contianed within. Of course, some sort of tamper detection could be inscluded within the device itself.
Since it would all come down to cost however, I beleive it would be extremely unlikely that any of these ideas ever get put into practice. Manufactures wouldnt take part unless required by law. The best solution would be to require a 3rd party observer (or someone representing the defence if possible) wheneever digital evidence is recorded.

I wouldnt be suprised if they're just trying to remove the competition.

Exactly, why watch TV. Just download the shows you cant miss and watch them on your computer.

Well if you were born in the country, then your not an immigrant. Although, your ancestors might have been.
The clowns already came and left. [IMDB.com] They just killed a few people though, not the entire universe.
