COMPOSITE VIDEO - DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS
Helpful Hint: Your computer should automatically configure your display settings if you start up your PC after connecting it to your TV.
THINGS YOU NEED: Composite video port, composite video cable.
HOW TO CONNECT:
Connect the color-coded red-white-yellow plugs from the corresponding jacks on your TV to the same jacks on your computer (unless the audio is indicated by a circular orange icon, in which case you will need a separate miniplug-to-RCA Stereo Audio Cable).
HOW TO CONNECT WITH SEPARATE AUDIO CABLE:
Video - Connect one end of the RCA Composite video cable to the video output on your computer and the other end to the video input on your TV (also color-coded yellow).
Audio - Plug the single connector end of the audio cable to the line-out or speaker-out connector on your computer usually indicated by a circular orange icon. Plug the 2 RCA connectors on the other end of the audio cable into the audio input on your TV or stereo (color-coded red and white for left and right audio channels).

More likely they are just using Windows Media Video and rely on the DRM functionality.
They don't really have a way to protect their rights on Linux, but they could definitely use DRM with Quicktime and be able to handle the Mac users out there too.
It has pictures of the different types of connections you may have and then links to detailed instructions like what alice posted for composite video.
