Further, since the patent holders of mp3 state on their web page that you DO NOT NEED A LICENSE for home use I would like Novell to make available repositories that are FREE but never included in their boxed sets which overcome and reverse all crippling.
But such a repository would be illegal, since it qualifies as distribution.
