Tech support is also available via e-mail and in user-to-user forums. In addition to the
well-known open source desktop software you would expect to see in a KDE desktop
(OpenOffice.org office suite, Konqueror Web browser, GAIM instant messaging, and so
on), Linspire has some added, proprietary features, including the capability to play MP3
music and other multimedia formats.
Most commercial DVD titles are in an encrypted format that is not normally possible to
play legally under Linux, but Linspire users can purchase a licensed DVD player from the
CNR warehouse for $49.95.
 Linspire Five-0 CNR Edition??”This version includes the core Linspire Five-0 operating
system and a year??™s subscription to the gold level of the CNR service. As with the basic
level of service, gold level lets you easily install and remove thousands of software packages.
It also enables you to organize your downloads in groups or ???aisles,??? which is handy
when you want to duplicate a favorite set of programs on multiple computers. Aisles can
also be shared with other CNR users. Gold-level users also get priority support and discounts
on Linspire merchandise and third-party software. For example, they pay only
$9.95 for the licensed DVD player.
