There are complex legal and ethical reasons for this. However, many users just want to play their files and watch their DVD&#8217;s. So what is the easiest way to make (K)Ubuntu do these things?<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>In principle<\/em>, you need to add a couple of extra repositories to your system &#8211; dependent on which version of Ubuntu you are usingn(see the &#8220;how-to&#8221; below for detais of a way of actualy doing this):-<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li>deb http:\/\/packages.medibuntu.org\/ hardy free non-free<\/li>\n<li>deb-src http:\/\/packages.medibuntu.org\/ hardy free non-free<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li>deb http:\/\/packages.medibuntu.org\/ intrepid free non-free<\/li>\n<li>deb-src http:\/\/packages.medibuntu.org\/ intrepid free non-free<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li>deb http:\/\/packages.medibuntu.org\/ jaunty free non-free<\/li>\n<li>deb-src http:\/\/packages.medibuntu.org\/ jaunty free non-free<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li>deb http:\/\/packages.medibuntu.org\/ karmic free non-free<\/li>\n<li>deb-src http:\/\/packages.medibuntu.org\/ karmic free non-free<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And then you have to download some packages that contain the software and libraries you need.

Please note that all four of these commands are single lines &#8211; though your browser may have caused them to &#8220;<em>line-wrap<\/em>&#8220;.<\/p>\n<p>1. Add repositories.
