Can a good solution be to use the free stuff built for the EvilEmpire's OS and run them through wine?

There are a few applications that work fine through wine and were designed for windows users in mind.  There are ffmpeg, dvdauthor and the same free stuff(that is patent encumbered) made available for windows users that like to use them.  Why not use those through wine?

Some users have reported success with those.  Why not try them out?

Yes they are, but not making it easier to users to add support for the other stuff is also important.

Here we have to make use of the EvilEmpireOS if we need to make things just work, unless of course via wine we can get those apps to work.

There are many good things and apps already working, but for a better user experience many things can be better.
