YouTube stopping unlicenced TV access

[D. Hugh Redelmeier]

Apparently there are two interfaces to YouTube: flash and "API".  
Apparently Terms Of Service forbid unlicensed devices from using the
API.  Now they (YouTube/Google) are enforcing this restriction so, for
example, Popcorn Hour can no longer use it.

WDTV uses the same API.  I don't know if they are licensed.
