The overall content of my short and undescriptive comment was that by providing legal codecs, Mandriva can be sold and used in regions where patent facism exists; DVD description codecs being the example chosen. My comment stands and does relate to the orginal post by intent but I could have been more descriptive.

Cheers for the clarification though and thanks to too the previous post for listing off other legal codec packages users can choose without being forced into running win32/64 against there will.
