sorry to disappoint but i read the case law, they limited themselves to evidence of movies which were not released yet (leaked copys for review purposes only)
no purchased rights means no fair use rights
no time shifting, no back up, no recovery
and supposedly they proved he knew the content was not authorized
so no safe harbor either.
of course i mentioned it way back when mr rebel first posted this story.
