Hi,

I got some complaints today, that two Bulgarian companies violate GPL by
distributing mplayer-based software, without it`s source code.

Here are the two:

1. The first one is MediaONE Player (http://mop.mediaone.bg)

* It`s for watching online TV from the Bulgarian biggest warez site. :(

"MOP is a video and audio player, based on mplayer. "

and the download only links to http://mop.mediaone.bg/MOP-1.19.exe

It`s possible that they made the site accessible only from Bulgaria, if
so, email me to send you a static copy of the site.

You can contact the site directly: http://arenabg.com/feedback.php

2. The second one is MEGALAN player, a player by one Bulgarian ISP for
watching tv in their network.
(http://www.megalan.bg/item_details.php?id=114)

The download only links to
http://software.megalan.bg/MegaTV/MegaTVSetup.exe which gives error 403,
so it might be restricted only to clients of the ISP.

You can contact the ISP here:
ICQ: 268896075, 430515082 , 450591829
info at megalan.bg and support at megalan.bg
