[summary: LGPL vs. GPL]
I agree that LGPL is better for libraries.
I think GNU & RMS had a reason to create it.
And those are the same people, that created GPL.
Think about it!
So its imho the right choice for a media player _framework_ based on
libraries. And its a good choice by A'rpi imho.
Where is the difference between a _bad_ company using gcc and other software
to produce DRM- / other bad Software or a Software that uses LGPLed
libraries?
I see no difference. If someone is evil, they'll always find a way.
I wish the "Next Generation Multimedia Framework" good luck! :-)
Btw: Which advantage would GPL have over LGPL for others?
