DCMA = Digital Millenium Copyright Act, which was started to stop all
the "digital piracy" that got started with napster and kazaa etc. From
what I have read though, they are now more concerned with making money
rather than stopping piracy and have violated as many of our rights as
customers as they have protected rights of artists.
I've read some places and heard myths that, at least for US citizens
such as myself, that a lot of the stuff we download is "illegal" because
someone isn't making money off of us. A good example is with mp3 coders.
Now downloading mp3 songs is a completely separate issue, but in the US,
someone has a copyright on the mp3 technology, so that is why
RedHat/Fedora can't ship with mp3 support, or they would have to pay big
$ in either legal penatlies or royalties. When I downloaded one of the
many mp3 encoders to rip my CD collection, I remember seeing a warning
on the website saying it "might" be illegal for US citizens to download
the file because it is copyrighted here. Now I understand how Red Hat
can't legally distribute mp3 stuff, but why would I be required to buy a
"Made in the USA" mp3 encoder rather than getting a foreign made one
when I can buy a lot of other stuff from other countries online without
getting in trouble?
And how is a DVD player program illegal? I have not heard of this yet
and am curious how that works??? I know about region codes &
restrictions, and that bypassing them is "illegal," but what is the deal
with mplayer and xine. I use them both and don't see how I am breaking
any laws...

The technology to play DVDs is licensed from the DVD consortium. To make
a player for DVDs, you are supposed to pay them a license fee. What you
get for your money is a key that can be revoked at any time is it happens
to "fall into the wrong hands". (This is why the current DVD CSS
libraries just crack the code in realtime instead of generating a list of
predefined, and revokable) keys.

The mp3 technology (as I see discussed later in the thread) is protected
by patent, not copyright. See http://www.mp3licensing.com/
The mp3 files (or DVD movies, etc.) are (or at least may be) protected
by copyright, but this does not legally prevent the one who has bought a
CD from making archival copies, or playing the material from different
media. If content now distributed in mp3 files were instead encoded
with an open (and arguably higher quality) process such as Ogg Vorbis,
all of us open-source users would be a whole lot happier and safer from
both copyright and patent issues.

Well, I'm not aware of any major distro right now shipping a legal dvd-player.
The only and first one was TurboLinux a few months ago shipping CyberLink
PowerDVD.
Soon after that, HP started selling their Linux laptop (which comes with SUSE)
and it had LinDVD on it. Note: the SUSE distro does not come with LinDVD.
This was mainly an HP & Intervideo arrengement (it seems).
Right now, you can't buy LinDVD or PowerDVD. They're just doing business with
OEM's.
So..asking your question, these distros may pay the company that produces the
dvd player...and these dvd companies may pay the technology owners...

"Digital Millenium Copyright Act".
It is the law that says that any electronic copy protection, no matter how
stupid or ineffective or restrictive, cannot be removed by the user under
penalty of law. (The "Matress Tag" law of the 21st century.)
Anything electronic you "buy" now is not really bought. It is rented from
the owner under terms that only benefit the owner. They can discontinue
your "ownership" of the product at any given time and they owe you nothing
in return. And you can't do a damned thing about it.
There have been a lot of cries to "just change the lawmakers". The last
election showed just how much chance their is of that in the US.

I use ogle
It's in the rpm.livna.org repositories.
While it is true that ogle *just* plays DVD's - it does it quite
nicely.
For other media types I use totem - and will use totem for DVD's once
dvd playback in the gstreamer backend is fixed.

Not to start a war, but AFAIK, DMCA has only been used to stop a
company from distributing a software that would copy DVD's (that was
it's intended purpose).
The reason Red Hat won't include a DVD player is the same as the reason
they don't ship an MP3 player, i.e. the formats are not open source.
This is the stated purpose of Fedora, to put together a Distro of
completely Open source products.

Yes "DVD Jon" was eventually cleared of wrong doing under Swedish law,
DVD XCOPY which used his libraries, has been removed from sale, and the

Well I don't see much difference, If an item has patents, it is
presumably not free. Even though the patent holders have never even
tried to start legal action on mp3 codecs anywhere, and have said that
they have no intention of going after anyone, they also have not
released them under GPL or any other "free" license.
The fedora home page does have this to say on the subject though:
"The goal of The Fedora Project is to work with the Linux community to
build a complete, general purpose operating system exclusively from free
software."
Since mp3 is not free, redhat won't use it. Presumably this would also
apply to code that is copyrighted, but not patented too.

The vast majority of the code in Fedora is copyrighted. The GPL relies on
copyright law as its basis.
You're right about the patents though.

Disclaimer: IANAL.
There are three matters.
1. Trademarks.
Trademarks have to be enforced or they're lost. Australian companies have
been making ugg boots for 30 years or so to my memory. Now some American
company is claiming it as a trademark. I predict they'll lose if a court
adjudicates, but of course the "infringers" may not have enough money to
spend on it.
2. Patents.
Patents require registration and renewal in all jurisdictions, and have a
limited lifespan. Patents can be enforced discriminatorily: IBM can choose to
not enforce patents against some people (say OSS developers) and go after
others (say Bill). I would trust IBM to do just that, whereas I expect Bill
will sue all.
Note that most countries do not recognise software patents.
3. Copyright.
In most jurisdictions, an author owns copyright unless his wok explicity
denies this ("this work is in the public domain"). The major exception is
commissioned work: if I hire you to paint me a picture of Bill receiving a
pie in the face, I own the copyright unless our contract says otherwise.
In some jurisdictions (eg .de), copyright cannot be assigned. A copyright
owner can impose restrictions on the use of his work: he permits its use
under a licence.
In public domain works, the author disclaims all rights of ownership. As I
understand "public domain," I can take a public domain work and claim it
(perhaps with minor modifications) as my own.
A complete work can have many copyright holders. Think of a performance by the
Boston Pops Orchestra. The composer holds copyright on the score. Then
arranger has copyright over the arrangement, Importantly, each performer
(annd conductor) has copyright over her contribution. And if the performance
is recorded, there are more copyrights there too.
It is copyright law that underpins all OSS licences.
Patents tend to lie in hiding (eg Amazon's one-click patent) and can be
destroyed by prior art. OSS developers cannot keep up (indeed corporates
can't), and for the moment I prefer to ignore them until they pop up. OTOH I
do not recommend "fingers in ears."

Hello All,
I got an iPod mini for my birthday. After installing iTunes software
on Windows and loading/playing some songs, I rebooted into FC4 and was
surprised to find an iPod icon on my gnome desktop. FC4 seems to treat
the iPod as just another USB hard drive. From the icon I was able to
drill down through several layers of folders to files that seem to
contain songs in Apple's m4a format although, of course, the iPod's
database structure wasn't quite as transparent. But in Windows it takes
real labor to see any structure at all!
I was expecting to have to do a lot to get this far towards using my
iPod with FC4 rather than with Windows. But people "out there" seem to
have already been working on this. Sometimes the scope of Linux as a
collaborative project is amazing.
My question: is there an iPod software interface like iTunes that works
well on FC4, or at least a package that can play (or convert) m4a files?
