DivX 6.0 is Out

    Is there any _truly_free_ "free version" for Windows? Player only? Player and encoder?

    How about Linux?

    (yeah, I know about xvid and ffmpeg, I'm just asking about DivX specifically)

    It only works with Windows and I don't think its documented. So what if it compresses a bit more.

    If you haven't switched to OS X by now, you are either stupid or an open source zealot (which are one in the same, really).

    Shelf space is a premium in shops these days because of arsehole companies with their oversized packaging. When I buy a 1" sq. compact flash card, why do I need an 8" sq. box to hold it? That's a waste of resources, and it just helps fill up more quickly our dwindly supply of land fill sites.
