Sorry to chime in again. Jörg Schilling is playing the funny guy twisting facts again:

You are lying: Proof: >From your website: ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ProDVD/README: NOTE: the DVD-recording drivers have been added to the OpenSource part on May 15th 2006 with cdrtools-2.01.01a09. That was 2006. The first patch for adding DVD support to cdrecord I found in 1min searching was for cdrecord 1.11a08: http://www.abcpages.com/~mache/cdrecord-dvd.html cdrecord 1.11 was already released before 2001. At that time cdrecord-ProDVD was for sure not free. One of the Debian bug reports discussing that #248187 starts Sun, 9 May 2004 for cdrtools release 2.0+a30 Guys please see the the reality WHO is lying here. Or is Schillings missing at least 5 years???
