The ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG recently changed their "General Terms and
Conditions" that vendors of EPG services and onlineprogramservices like
TVTV or tvinfo.de has to license the program-information. So it seems
the ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG makes the EPG, which is broadcasted for
free, useless for these services to make them buy licenses.
