I was under macinsto$h world before, using different "pro" audio tools and since 3/4 years I only works with linux in audio production, and I could work as "pro" in all the production I want to do. It's adequate because I could realize all the works I need to do : recording sounds (jackit, qarecord, jackmix, ardour, rezound, audacity, mhwaveedit...etc), mixing it (ardour, audacity...etc), masterized it (jamin, rezound...), produce CD (K3B, Gcombust...), produce webcasting (icecast, ices, puredata...) & jukebox (zina...), real time concerts & installation (puredata, jackit, jack-rack, FreqTweak, terminatorX, spiralSynthModular...)... and it's poilitcal & ethically in the way I want to work with art (GNU, copyleft, GPL...), it's based on relation between people and the human being not on business and personnal profit... julien
