[CUBE] iDVD again

[Eagle]

Greetings, all.

I feel the same way, and I sent Apple feedback on that today.  I mean, 
now that iDVD is for-fee, surely they can put the cost of the DVD 
license in the cost of iLife.  Can someone remind me again what the 
problem is? Besides that they want to sell hardware, I mean... 
especially since iDVD is NOT free...  (Note that iPhoto, iMovie, and 
iTunes will still be free downloads.)

PS - Apple needs to update Mail to detect that "iLife" is spelled 
correctly. :)
