I don't think is a good move, mainly because of some errors playing some popular formats like .mp3 As you can see not few people have this problem. http://getsatisfaction.com/songbird/topics/songbird_has_encountered_the_following_media_core_error_internal_data_flow_error Gstreamer… not reliable at this moment.

What freedom do you get from GPL? That license force you to join them once you touch it. That's a stupid idea. It like a virus, that's why people hate GPL, so do I. GPL is sxxk!

Can VLC do a dual licensing option with you folks? So if I read this right, the only reason not doing VLC is because of the licensing, correct? Can VLC do a dual licensing option with you folks?

This assumes we can convince the product people to agree that it's important to do so, of course.

GStreamer offers ABI stability for each stable series. However, it is likely that at some point (in 2-3 years time maybe, no one really knows) the GStreamer developers will abandon the current GStreamer-0.10 series and start a new stable series with a changed API/ABI, which would leave the old GStreamer-0.10 series unmaintained. The KDE folks were looking for something that is ABI stable and maintained for at least 5 years, which GStreamer currently can't offer, since it's still in the process of finding the perfect multimedia API that can do it all.

This problem eventually led to the development of Phonon, a simplified multimedia-framework for KDE4, which provides wrappers for various multimedia frameworks, including GStreamer.
