Answer to question 9

This evades the question of DVD playback.
No license is required to play DVDs on a linux computer. DVD players such as Ogle and Xine are GPL.

And no, it is not a violation of the DMCA to employ DeCSS to watch media you have purchased or rented on hardware that you own.

Otherwise, RH9 sounds great!
