================================
Oddly enough, regardless of the picture quality, the sound has been 
pretty decent on various sets of TV programmes I've bought recently.

Can anyone explain when a filmed, rather than live, series is sold to a 
TV company, what happens to the film after the airing? Have the company 
the rights to show it in perpetuity or do what they will with it?
