Here is the announcement.

First, thanks to zap2it for providing good guide data for a long time.

However, I’ve got to wonder.  Tribune is running the show at zap2it, so this move has the appearance of cutting off free access in favor of paid access.  The strange part - there isn’t an option for individuals to subscribe to this data!

Where does this leave MythTV?  Well, now we’ve got to go back to HTML scraping, for the most part.

For what it is worth, I have sent an email to Zap2It asking for them to reconsider.  I would urge anyone who uses, or is thinking about using, MythTV to send a nice email as well.
