Exactly. Not even to the upstream distributor. That's where Linus'
theory of tit-for-tat falls apart.
Nope.
case 1: Upstream provides source, tivo modifies and distributes it (to
their customers).
case 2: tivo provides source, end user modifies and distributes it
(possibly to their customers, maybe to friends, possibly even to upstream).
See? Tit for tat.
