We were actually going to go and send you a letter and ask for permission. We never intended to disappoint you, Peter. So we have removed the download. If you feel like forgiving us and letting us post the download, please post back on the blog saying so. We will then contact you by email to work out the terms (if that's what you require). However, if we do not get permission, or don't for a very long time, we will still be offering the product as a transformation pack with instructions. Regardless, if you would please contact the Nero lawyers again and tell them the good news, we would like that very much. What a shame.

You could have contacted us and asked for a permission to publish a repack and for help with making your repack cooperate with our installer for an example (to ensure our installers don't nuke the directory when installing over, like it was with most other repacks). You did not, and so much for your babble about how much you "love" the product - you can't even respect the author's will while trying to "help" spreading it. You're also in violation of multiple Nero product licenses (neroAacEnc, various Nero-owned code that foobar2000 includes on special permissions that you don't have). Nero lawyers have been notified about your activity, you can expect a C&D letter soon. -P Jesus might forgive you, but I certainly don’t, and Nero lawyers are even less forgiving.

Think about it. There are tons of casual users who would never download Foobar2000 because of the, um, plain interface. We really love Foobar, and want to spread the good word. You should know about that, Jesus. Besides, it still says Foobar2000, has the Foobar2000 logo, and we link to the guy's website. Also, Foobar2000 is not very well formatted for flash drives (it has an installer, people). Flash-drive-friendliness is one of our main goals.
