But they have to be legal on the non-US mirrors as
well as the main non-US FTP site. Isn't that why
quake isn't included, because Germany and Argentina
have it illegal? So if several countries with Debian
mirrors have laws against mp3 encoders it wouldn't be
in non-US, even if it was legal in the Netherlands.
