However if you stream it from another site that is not showing it at the same time that it is broadcast then the license is not required.
I'm not talking about a couple of seconds delay, a couple of minutes streamed TV is outside of the license requirements.
Whatever the TVLI website says is often misleading and designed to fool you into buying a license when you do not need one.

Any chance you could post the section of Communications Act with the appropriate section. I could not find it myself.
Cheers
