If art is all you have to complain about then that shows just how far we
have come. I'd rather see art relegated to the sidelines so people can
choose a distro on real tangible features. Or would you rather people
chose Ubuntu for it's brownness, Fedora for it's blueness or Suse/Novell
for it's greenness?
The point about handling modern media is more interesting for me. As a
geek user I'm *this* close to re-ripping my entire collection as ogg.
The main motivator is because it's more open than mp3. Fedora has been a
strong influence in this. At work I can imagine Fedora being used on the
desktop and the lack of multimedia support would not be a big issue.
I think it's clear that there are distros with more seamless support for
media out there, and it's never been that much of an impediment for
Fedora. Notwithstanding that, a separate commercial addons disk might
help bring more users to Fedora. I don't think anyone would stand in the
way of a third party doing this - so if you really believe it, put your
money where your mouth is... I can't speak for RH but I imagine they are
more focused on keeping the developers happy than users, and developers
get by with livna et al.
