I just think the court would be hostile to such a construction/interpretation; that's the crux of our disagreement here, methinks.

I'll run this question by a some of the attorneys I speak to regularly (heh... probably not to include Larry, all things considered) and see what they have to say. I probably won't be able to get any of them to go on the record with me about this, but I'll give it a shot.
but they are not defining the club as the content supplier

the club broadcast system would simply be the medium.

you don't consider all the servers that exist between your server and my computer "content suppliers"

it would be a significant stretch of the phrasing to make that declaration.
