The story has nothing to do with licensing or philosophy but with the missing
will for quality oriented collaboration with the Author.
The attacks against the cdrtools project started after I rejected to integrate
a patch into the official source because it did not solve the problem but
instead added bugs.

You do not need to play these silly /dev/ games if you use the original
cdrecord.
If you only have one drive (this should be the case for > 95% of all users),
simply omit the dev= parameter and cdecord will automagically find your drive.
