1. A: You don't, but the CDs contain only the operating system, not the various other things also held on the ftp server which some seem unable to ignore or compare like-for-like.
You didn't answered my question. Let me rephrase it like this: Why Debian Project distributes only the operating system without proprietary softwre on the CDs, but distributes the operating system plus proprietary software on the Internet? How Debian Project distinguish its users (whether to ship them proprietary software or not) based on the medium of distribution?
If those users on the Internet "deserve" (sic!) proprietary software, then why the users of the CDs does not "deserve" it?
