Have they ever found this stuff in music or television shows and proved it. Is it against the law?

Yes they have. I had a tape called backward masking. A Preacher claimed that some rock songs when played backwards had hidden messages. I thought he was full of crap, so I bought some records and tried it myself. Guess what? HE WAS RIGHT!!!
Another one bites the dust by Queen, wanna know what it says? Its fun to smoke Marijuana. Everytime he says another one bites the dust played backwards that's what it says.
Led Zeppelins Stairway to Heaven has five phrases. I remember one was "He will give you 666". No joke.
Eagles Hotel California, Meatloafs Bat out of Hell, Black Sabbaths Snow Blind, Pink Floyd's Waiting For The Worms. Threes alot that I did myself just too see and it was real.
The first person who tried subliminal messages was a movie theater owner. He flashed the words "eat popcorn, drink coca cola". He did this real fast so consciously you didn't pick the message up, but sub-consciously you did. Popcorn sales went up 25% and coke sales went up 20%.
It is against the law to use subliminal advertising. However the C.I.A still uses it in some form or another.

I believe it is illegal. Movie houses used to use them to sell more at their concession stands send me all your money. However, I think their effectiveness is overblown write a check for every penny you have. And many people don't really understand what "subliminal" means get out your checkbook now.
Remember in the election of 2000 when the Republicans ran an ad that seemed to emphasize the word "rats" in "Democrats"? The Dems screamed that the Reps were using subliminal messages spell my name correctly on the check. But they were not, because the word "rats" was clearly seen. When it's a subliminal message, it's something placed where it is only picked up by the subconcious mail it now. So they were barking up the wrong tree on that one.
Love, Jack.

It is valid, from a physiological perspective. A brief exposure to certain images can imprint at the subconscious level without being consciously registered.
As to whether it is illegal, that depends on the state/country, and the circumstances.

They are real. They work on your unconscious mind, which means you wouldnt know that they were there. I dont know of any laws on the books about them though.
