But not a waste of time for the average college kid trying
to become a musician free of charge.

Your reviews materially suck as you don't know what professional
musicians use Linux for.

You have never used dynebolic I can see and the hundred or so
free music utilities that come with it.
You know people have been making podcasts
for years with that free of charge. They are just the part
of 1 million new Linux users per month switching to Linux and
the rate is increasing.
