You are right no that one. I think, selling a DVD player seperately would satisfy everyone: - SUSE does not include commercial products (except for free ones: Adobe Reader etc). - The price for the boxed version does not increase. - My license works with the next version of SUSE Linux, too. What Novell would have to do: - Compile a binary RPM from the OEM version of either LinDVD or PowerDVD for every release. - Sell it online The main problem is that I as a costumer can not get LinDVD nor PowerDVD as they only sell their product to OEMs. If they would sell it, Novell would not have to do anything.
