Sorry don't know if this is the correct place to post this.

Is vlc player legal in the United States now? If so, what court case changed that?

I have noticed more Linux distro now included the vlc player with all the codec need to play dvds and other videos. The distro's come from a United States Linux repository.

I also notice the distro that don't have them, you can download them & the files come from United States Linux repository.

Even Microsoft recommends VLC and I think Microsoft provides a link to download it on windows 8.x and possibly windows 10.

Thank you for this information.
