Digiguide is a Windows-only program (unless you run it under Wine on
Linux).

I talked to Digiguide about paying to just get the TV data in a
structured format and they're not interested unless I was to pay a
ridiculously large amount per month).

There is a Linux program called XMLTV which can manipulate TV schedule
info (can use either Digiguide's HTML site or Radio Times).

Radio Times recently launched a similar service to Digiguide for PDAs.
I've asked them if they would provide access to structured information
and they say they are considering it.
