If he's reselling or giving away the material he's recording, he's pirating. If he's time shifting for personal use only, it's perfectly legal. He's not "renting" Netflix movies. He pays a monthly subscription to access their database of material.
It's no different than me recording a show off HBO to watch at my convenience.

No I wasn't being funny. Recording movies off of Netflix is pirating. It's the same as video taping a movie at the theatre.
If you want to do this, that's fine - but don't suggest that it is perfectly legal (at least not in the manner you have promoted it).
Recording over the air shows is legal - recording rental shows is not.
