So does this means we can create ISOs of Ubuntu etc with all the media codecs pre-installed and distribute them freely in India ?

  I would think so. As long as you don't distribute in countries which do have software patents.

  Copyright is different from patents.

    Of course, but wouldn't there be a legal-issue in distributing patent-infringing software?

    The codecs used in GNU+Linux don't infringe copyright, only patents.
