In our view, Part VA can allows you to record programs that are webcast, by an Australian broadcaster, simultaneously with a TV or radio broadcast. There are, however, difficult technical and legal issues.
Part VA also now allows you to copy free-to-air broadcasts that are made available online by the broadcaster – such as podcasts and vodcasts on the ABC website of programs that have been broadcast on the ABC. If there are terms and conditions for the use of the file, these may limit what you may otherwise be entitled to do under Part VA.
