Did you happen to not notice that virtually every Dell currently shipped has mp3 playback loaded - also WMA and most would have dvd too.

Did you happen to notice that Dell and various other vendors were sued
for shipping MP3 (the suit Microsoft then took up and just lost the first
round of for $1.2 billion...

Feel free to do your own distro using MP3 if you've got $1.2 billion to
spare.

That's a valid point, but in the US anyone can sue anyone else over just about anything and it's not over till the appeals are used up. How can you be sure that someone won't claim ownership of some obscure parts of Linux and sue over that - again?
