I think its clearly illegal. It is somebody incorporating my copyrighted material into a derivative work without my permission.

When somebody wants to reproduce an article I've written in an anthology they're publishing, they send me a contract and a check. When Third Voice incorporates my web pages into their service, they had better be prepared to do the same (and yes I believe the same thing applies to framing -- license the content or don't use it, period).

I do agree, though, that TV is extremely unlikely to become popular. I installed it for a few weeks and found it underwhelming.
