I do imagine that is part of the concern. Could you imagine the opensource community screaming over a binary copy-protection blob on their systems? Although there are commercial applications out there that do incorporate some sort of copyprotection ie MayaQuote:

My son bought UT3 and I have played it a few times, however I could care less that there is no Linux client for it as I still like UT 2004 much better.
Don't think so...Quote:

The problem -seems- to be legal and/or licensing related, and as such, the fact that such binaries do exists means nothing.
I've abandoned all hope of having UT3/Linux long, long, long ago. (Though I'd love to be proven wrong)
