Hi Folks
I was going a little confused in this Non-Free and OSS mixup... to explain my problem take a look at this small case-study..
Fact : Mp3 decoding is not legal without paying royalty fees (in some countries)...
Case : XYZ installs FedoraCore (100% OSS Guaranteed :-) ) and installs his fav MP3 player from say Yum or RPM download or...
Now is it illegal to :
1. Write an MP3 (decoder which is available for free download) player
2 Use this MP3 Player
3. <if i missed anything>
Regards
Siddharth
