Hm, I would rephrase that "made *with* Linux".
If Linux is involved in any part of the production,
then it's made with Linux.
Even if it's just to use one audio plugin, or a transcoder,
or a resampler or something, it's still made with Linux, right?
I managed to make two complete CDs using nothing but MusE
(of course) and LADSPA plugins, even for the guitar distortion -
the most important part of the chain, without my pro-effects unit.
That would be "made *on* Linux" for sure, eh?
Cheers.
