As long as there is good *open-source* CD ROM/burning software there should be nothing to worry about.

Yeah, until those bastards at RIAA/MPAA say "there are all sorts of closed source proprietary products out there which work with DRM, so open source cd-burners w/o DRM must be piracy ware, and therefore illegal under the DMCA."
It isn't right, and it may not fly in the courts, but I'm expecting to see this in the news.

Hmmmm well I think it's important to have a user friendly SWITCH TO LINUX site, ready to introduce the Windoids to the land where they can run pirated games, pirated movies, and pirated songs.
They might go WTF what has windows become? Oh cruel fate, how can I ever do every day stuff?(like pirating) This is bullshit ARG! There is no alternative! Suddenly... hey friend, have you ever heard of Linux? :D
Calum:
you have it all wrong. windoids are already in the land of pirating, warez and illegal mp3s.
Linux on the other hand allows for the stable running of free fully functional apps, whose usual windows counterparts are high priced and unstable. Actually many of these open source apps have been compiled for windows. GIMP, Mozila and OpenOffice.org spring to mind.
Also, i do not really know how many windoids will take the leap of faith simply because of tighter copy protection.
lazygamer:
Yes im aware they are in that realm, I mean 4 years from now when TCPA takes away their RIGHT to do these things, then Linux will be there.
My only concern is that the windoids won't know what this jump to Palladium means for them... because their windoids. :(
