They weren't referring to this portion of the discussion. It was the
discussion encryption and how to circumvent it that was not allowed.
Getting Linux access to the non-DRM streams/files is fine. But there
will be some some (maybe most) files that are flagged and encrypted
with DRM so there is simply no legal way to get around that and
discussions of that would be against list policy.
