I object quite strongly. This seems to go against the spirit
of the Social contract; we in fact prefer free software over similar
(even possibly superiro non-free software).

The Non-free stuff is not part of Debian, and should not be on
the official CD.
Any such move would dilute the perceived adherence to the DFSG
and the social contract.
