Nice avoidance yet again of the request to provide some legal backing to 
your assertion that it is legal to distribute cdrtools.

In the legal system I live in, if you have a suspicion that doing 
something is illegal, then you do not do it.  If someone tells you that 
it is fine with no evidence of legal backing for that assertion and you 
decide to take their advise, you are legally responsible for your decision.

Hence the caution and continuously asking for you to provide some 
evidence that the often mentioned legal review actually says that it is 
fine to distribute cdrtools.
