Are Install CDs a type of LiveDistro?

Example of a Build Tool for Install CD:

"Simple-CDD is a wrapper around debian-cd and mirroring tools used to create a customized DebianInstaller CD image. It takes a list of packages to install, and debconf pre-seeding files to pre-configure the installation. It has some support for multiple profiles and custom post-install scripts (for things that can't be handled by debconf preseeding)."

Installers are "live". Would Simple-CDD be considered a LiveDistro Build Tool? Then wouldn't all distributions be LiveDistros?

Software licenses such as the GNU General Public License help end-user freedoms to remain intact as the software passes though time. The BSD License does not make this requirement; thus, because we support end-user freedom thoughout time, we choose strong copyleft licenses.

While not all software included in GNU/Linux distributions is copyleft, as time passes, more and more copyleft software is produced and will eventually replace non-copyleft software in the distributions and resources listed on this site.

LiveDistros w/ Terms of Service or other requirements will not be published on this site.
