I'm guessing they are hoping to counteract the Roku effect. And any other "free" services that have dozens and dozens of channels streaming pre-programmed content that can't be recorded or even paused.

I have YTTV yet I spend an inordinate amount of time on Roku Channel's block of true crime channels. Although it absolutely sucks when I want to pause or I see something playing a few hours later that I have no way of watching now or later.
