Sometimes using UBuntu can be quite frustrating.
Not because of Ubuntu itself, but because 3rd parties are not willing to support Linux in the same way as they are supporting OS X or Windows.
Take for example the Dutch TH channel RTL. They have a site where you can wathc episodes of shows that have already aired: rtlgemist.nl. The site uses MS Silverlight - for which a reasonable open-source version is available in Moonlight. So far so good, BUT ...
For some reason some shows are protected by DRM, which makes it impossible to view these shows using Ubuntu.
It seems quite hypocritical...
Because what OS is RTL running on it's server? Right, Linux...
