Sofaspud, kinda missin' the point here.
I have to blow an additional 50-100USD on those 'Extra Bits' of third party software. Software that is not fully assured to not fuck up your system. That's on top of the 250USD I spent on the hardware, and the 180USD for the operating system (because there was no way in hell I was sticking with Vista). The compression codecs are not free and it ticks me off. And some people wonder why software piracy is so prevalent.
Wire... words fail me.
