Indeed, Nicu, as have I and many, many other users. The thing is how to improve the experience out-of-the-box, and Multimedia having such a high profile (and priority for most users) is key... I know this has been brought up many times in the past, but why don't we include in Fedora some "demo" material done purely off free formats (an example of this for F10, if we are still in time, would be to include the video-demo of adhoc netowrk sharing with NM in F10, and some of the Truth Happens videos, Red Hat allowing). I know "other distros" do this already, and I'm sure that these demos sure enough bring to the attention of people the existence of these formats.

I proposes in the past myself the addition of such content with no success. I guess this is a problem with available space on the media, all the focus in on the Live CD and it was really tough this round to make it fit on one CD (and there are still application deserving to be on the CD but with not enough space to fit them).

I see... For the liveCD is indeed kind of tough... However, there are ways:

1) The welcome screen on the browser (Firefox/Konqueror in GNOME/KDE spins) a local .(x)html file arranged in such a way that users see at a glance what Fedora has to offer, include in there links to some videos (maybe even add a few thumbnails of the videos, which shouldn't take too much disk space, a few hundred kb at most) to show case these technologies.

2) Instead of a welcome page, maybe a bookmark button in the browser... less exposed, but equally "included" to a certain "media" location within FP.O, etc...

There are a lot of things that *could* be done... The issue is "doing them".
