Ah, comeone "Highlighting the cost is part of the message that codeina

must pay for codecs in codina is plain and simply _bad_,
Would it ok be if the free MP3 codec stays but rest of them codec links
are removed? Again, the fundamental part of codeina is the initial
message you get when you play say a MP3 song and not some codec link.
Codeina could very well be modified to provide a framework where
alternative codec sources can be provided easily by third party
repositories for example. Throwing away codeina gets us back to cryptic
error messages. Would you consider that better?
but for some
reason condoned because the codec issue is a big problem for end users,
so having some very ugly work around is seen as ok in this situation
True and we don't have any elegant solutions to this problem. It is
merely a question of how ugly you want the solution to be.
