Back in FC3 or something like that - Fedora had some video package that 
would tell the user to install RealPlayer - and the list was full of 
complaints about it.

I don't think Fedora should endorse the closed source drivers/software - 
they do sometimes mis-behave, and the Fedora developers can't do squat 
about it - so Fedora itself should not recommend them.

But I don't mind it being as easy as possible for new users (who may not 
understand yum etc.) to get them.
