!My [MP3]s don't work!
One day, long ago, all was going quitely in Linux land. Suddenly, an [article|http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/08/27/1626241] appearen on Slashdot, claiming that all Music players that played [MP3] files had to pay a royalty fee to the developers of the [MP3] format to use the decoder.
But was this the truth? Days later, another [article|http://newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=02/08/29/1633205&tid=17] surfaced, saying that free deocders had never had to pay a licencing fee and never would have to. But the damage had been done. RedHat, in their quest to not get sued, removed all [MP3] decoders from the music players in their distrubtion. To play [MP3] files on Xmms, you have to install an [MP3] plugin. The xmms [website|http://xmms.org] has rpm packages that you can download and install to bring your [MP3]s back. But we all know you should be using [Oggs | OggVorbis] anyway......
