This sure is an idea with potential.
It might be good to add it to the TV plugin. Not because it *is* TV, but because it is *used* like TV.
My concept would be that there is a button in the main TV section "online media", giving access to a menu build out of a private (settings) of a public (server?) xml/library file. This file may contain both standard links as querying tools for both global content providers (Creative commons etc, CNN, BBC) as regional providers (for the netherlands "uitzending gemist" would be a logical start)
What might be interesting is to get the developers interested by building a small showcase at the public developing list.
Using the PCZapper data may or may not be legal, but the actual downloading is done by the end-user, so I think there is no problem for you as a programmer (there might be for you as a user, though I doubt anyone cares). Refer to the recent debate in the forum on the scraping of IMDB and their rules.

If you need some help building a showcase, let me hear, or just post your ideas. Do note that LordMessi allready wrote an idea for online services, with some overlap with this idea.
