Free software authors like me unfortunately need to live with useless claims like this one :-( The fact that the person did not give _any_ hint on what happened makes his claim extremely unreliable/unbelievable. Just compare https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cdrtools/ with https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cdrkit to understand realiability of cdrtools and cdrkit. I am of course _always_ open to real bug reports..... This can be verified that Ubuntu currently has not a single bug against cdrecord. Bug # 13729 is a Linux kernel bug and all other bugs listed for cdrtools are going to be closed in a week as they are related to bugs that have been fixed within the last year but not been verified again on Ubuntu. >You gave the answer yourself.

The CDDL is a free software license that gives more freedom than the GPL does and it is definitely accepted even by Debian.
