I know I'm not going to make any friends with such a statement, but
what is the problem with dropping "software like Ardour and Qtractor"?

If you are musician in the first place, then it's a matter of what
works best for you. If you are geek in the first place, then there's
no way you will abandon free software, so what's the problem? :)

We are talking about competition which is a natural thing. Rosegarden
can lose users to MusE or Qtractor. Qtractor can lose users to Ardour.
It happens all the time. Can you see any of the developers crying,
because they are all alone? :)
