Thanks, Mario, for expressing my very thought. We'll just have to take everything in it time. Right now, there are not enough Linux users to comprise the demand. As the cloud grows, that demand will increase. And, it is not only on account of the monthly fees, but concerns for privacy invasion. The word "create" means to make something new, not show the whole world what you're doing, as you are doing it.
There is hope. Examples: the desktop publishing program, Scribus, and a kind of hybrid DAW (some interesting similarities with SONY Acid, which I think is on the way out) called "Reaper." The studio is $60. I'm still evaluating.
MS likes to say individual user owned PCs are inefficient. That's not at all true. Funny how they change their tunes.

ReactOS is slowly getting there:
Imagine running your favorite Windows applications and drivers in an open-source environment you can trust. That's ReactOS. Not just an Open but also a Free operating system.

This was a VirtualBox image from the download page.
I might install it on a hard drive and see how it goes.

Thanks Pipeline. That looks like a page to put into the rotation.
Note the Linux Kernel is said to have a problem with x.s. power consumption. That comes as no surprise.

I see this is an old post, but the reason Realtracks do not work is because BnB uses WMA audio files. The simple fix is to convert the WMA files to WAV files. Once you do that, the real tracks will work on linux.
