Is there a reason why these codecs cannot be licensed and sold for Linux? So anyone that wants to remain legal can buy a small package of codecs at a reasonable price and install them? This cloak and dager non-sense to watch DVDs is getting old. The battle is lost at least in the US so why isn't this happening? Nobody will want to use an operating system that doesn't launch whatever file type they run into. I really don't see any real alternative here and I expect that it is just a matter of time before the current solution is litigated into oblivian.
