I used the word *distro* in my repy because I believe in your example above
you picked the name SuSE because you must not like the idea that SuSE
charges
for their distro and makes no ISO's available for download. Although I
personally do not use SuSE myself, I must at least say that they have every
right under the GPL to do what they do.

Actually, you *can* do a network-based install of SuSE and have the
installer download the packages from a mirror site for no charge; you just
don't get the proprietary stuff that they're not allowed to provide for
free.
