M$ fonts are free for use, you just cant distribute them...
Debian solved this having a virtual package that download & install them for 
you.
Anyway, I agree with Rob that having a way to fetch them and install localy 
(as a user) would be cool :-) (not for me, I just do apt-get install 
msttcorefonts)
