Because often times that is illegal.
a valid point-- however users want these things and if it's "too difficult"
to get them installed and operational they will go elsewhere. like the
original poster, I applaud the idea of sticking to the guns and not shipping
any "grey" content, but that does *not* solve the problem for the vast
majority of potential fedora users, and the matter needs to be addressed
rather soon if we want to have a serious set of desktop users.
Claiming that we need to address them without providing a good way to
solve that while not compromising on our principles is not a solution.
If you have a good way to enhance the desktop experience without
including or supporting non-free software, feel free to suggest that.
Its also important to recognize that non-free software often has
practical limitations of not being ported across all the architectures
that Fedora supports and we dont have a good way to fix problems that
arise out of it.
