I'm not a lawyer but I'm not so sure about US company being unable to provide something (in EU only) that is legal in EU but illegal in US. Let's leave that behind.
If I were to fork Fedora I'd add a big EU logo and a text informing people that you got all the usefull software BECAUSE no software patents hold us back. Fedora feels crippled by default. The repository plug you mentioned has two drawbacks. First it is not supported, this suxx. Second livna and other repos dont play along. This is even worse, I need to be aware about plethora of repositories and their interactions.
Not so user friendly anymore:-(
While I am aware about the threat of patents on software implementations (or worse, ideas) most people I know are having a hard time understanding what exeactly is wrong with them or they just don't care. MP3 is as required as JPG and if for some queer reason JPG was not free it would not be a very usefull excuse for not including it.
Because all the things concidered Fedora is quite good. For example it has, by default UTF-8 locale. While it's possible for any "distro" to do anything you like (you simply have to tweak it) it's not going to be that distro anymore. I want out-of-the box. I want works-for-my-parents.
Believe me I'm looking at other options but Fedora is still very good IMO.
Actually this is *not* funny.
Fedora should have EU-friendly variant with mp3 goodness in fedora-eu repository waiting to be installed by DEFAULT.
Wake up people, US is not the only place in the world.

How the heck am I going to listen to this on Fedora?
