Freespire's Google ads: "What is Ubuntu Missing?"

[Chanchao]

It seems Freespire is exactly the thing I wondered about way back when I 
started using Ubuntu:  "It Does Not Have To Be That Hard" to get stuff 
to play, and I always felt Ubuntu was over-cautious on licensing 
issues.. You'd think that if ANYONE would have the connections/clout to 
get the licensing issues for home users sorted then it would be sabdfl.. 
  Yet it never happened, and now there's Freespire with others likely to 
follow suit.  (OpenSuse perhaps?) So how about it?  Let's do an 
'enriched media edition' of Ubuntu.

I did notice however that Freespire uses KDE, which I hate A LOT more 
than a bit of DIY'ing on the RestrictedFormats page.

I bet dumping KDE in favour of Gnome is a lot more involved than a bit 
of gstreamer downloading......

So in answer to the Freespire ad about 'steps needed to make X the 
perfect OS', I'd like to see their instuctions to ditch KDE on Freespire 
and bolt on something more humane.

Cheers,
