I would just like to remind people that there are not two (Fedora and

Free for noncommercial use is also another important category. These
aren't free enough for Fedora, but there are a number of these type
in the rpmfusion nonfree repository.
Another good point. Just because some code isn't suitable for inclusion in
Fedora doesn't mean that you are breaking some law by installing it. In some
cases the code might actually be illegal, in others it means the license isn't
worded right and it's a religious matter.
