I had the chance to test AnySee’s USB based DVB-C tuner with MythTV, and I can confirm it “just works”.

To setup the AnySee E30 C Plus just follow my Terratec Cinergy C PCI HD + MythTV guide, the setup is exactly the same. The only thing I noticed is that the signal strength is not as high as it is with the Terratec card, it hovers around 40-50% vs 90-95%.

Dmesg output:
