   (e) Computer product means a product that is designed for or permits the end
   user to install a wide variety of commercially available software
   applications thereon, such as a personal computer, handheld “Personal

   (f) Covered demodulator product means a product that is required under
    Sec.  Sec. 73.9002(a)(1) or 73.9002(b)(1) to comply with the demodulator compliance
   requirements, and to be manufactured in accordance with the demodulator
   robustness requirements.

   (g) Demodulator means a component, or set of components, that is designed to
   perform the function of 8–VSB, 16–VSB, 64–QAM or 256–QAM demodulation and
   thereby produce a data stream for the purpose of digital television
   reception.

   (h) Demodulator compliance requirements means the requirements set out in
    Sec.  Sec. 73.9003 through 73.9006.

   (i) Demodulator robustness requirements means the requirements set out in
    Sec. 73.9007.

   (j) Peripheral TSP product means a product that is capable of accessing in
   usable form unscreened content or marked content passed to such product via
   a robust method where the manufacturer of such product has committed in
   writing in accordance with  Sec. 73.9002(c) that such product will comply with
   the demodulator compliance requirements and be manufactured in accordance
   with the demodulator robustness requirements.

   (k) EIT means Event information table as defined in ATSC A/65B: ATSC
   Standard: Program and System Information Protocol for Terrestrial Broadcast
   and Cable (Revision B) (incorporated by reference, see  Sec. 73.8000).

   (l) Marked content means, with respect to a Covered demodulator product,
   Unencrypted digital terrestrial broadcast content that such product has

   (1) Received and demodulated and for which such product has inspected either
   the EIT or PMT and determined the broadcast flag to be present, or

   (2) Where such product is a peripheral TSP product, received via a robust
   method and accessed in usable form, and for which such product either
   inspected the EIT or PMT and determined the broadcast flag to be present or
   determined through information robustly conveyed with such content that
   another covered demodulator product had previously so screened such content
   and determined the broadcast flag to be present; provided, however, that,
   with respect to a covered demodulator product, marked content shall not
   include content that has been passed from such product pursuant to
    Sec.  Sec. 73.9004(a)(1), 73.9004(a)(2), 73.9004(a)(3), 73.9004(a)(5), 73.9004(a)(6),
   or 73.9006(b).

   (m) PMT means program map table as defined in International Standard ISO/IEC
   13818–1:2000(E): “Information Technology—Generic Coding of Moving Pictures
   and Associated Audio Information: Systems” (incorporated by reference, see
    Sec. 73.8000).

   (n) Robust method means, with respect to the passing of unscreened content
   or marked content from one product to another, a content protection method
   that complies with  Sec. 73.9007.

   (o) Transitory image means data that has been stored temporarily for the
   sole purpose of enabling a function not prohibited by this subpart but that
   (1) does not persist materially after such function has been performed and
   (2) is not stored in a way that permits copying or storing of such data for
   other purposes.

   (p) Unencrypted digital terrestrial broadcast content means audiovisual
   content contained in the signal broadcast by a digital television station
   without encrypting or otherwise making the content available through a
   technical means of conditional access, and includes such content when
   retransmitted in unencrypted digital form.

   (q) Unscreened content means, with respect to a covered demodulator product,
   unencrypted digital terrestrial broadcast content that such product either:

   (1) Received and demodulated and for which such product has inspected
   neither the EIT nor the PMT for the broadcast flag; or

   (2) Where such product is a peripheral TSP product, received via a robust
   method and accessed in usable form, and for which such product has inspected
   neither the EIT nor the PMT for the broadcast flag and has not determined
   through information robustly conveyed with such content another covered
   demodulator product had previously so screened such content and determined
   the broadcast flag to be present; provided, however, that, with respect to a
   covered demodulator product, unscreened content shall not include content
   that has been passed from such product pursuant to  Sec.  Sec. 73.9003(a)(1),
   73.9003(a)(2), 73.9003(a)(3), 73.9003(a)(4), 73.9003(a)(6), 73.9003(a)(7),

   PCMCIA, Cardbus, or PCI that has standard sockets or otherwise readily
   facilitates end user access. A user accessible bus does not include memory
   buses, CPU buses, or similar portions of a device's internal architecture
   that do not permit access to content in a form usable by end users.
