As a musician and user of the software, I think that
it is more
important to get maximum useability and practicallity out of the
software. At the moment most musicians are paying for Microsoft
Windows software, because there is not an alternative that
supports their hardware. That's the most pressing problem. If
there are free alternatives in development, then use them, but
if there is no alternative, then it is most important to support
a wide range of equipment and reach as many potential users as
possible.
Tom, please notice that this is a matter of distribution. The fact
that A/DeMuDi doesn't come with the firmware doesn't mean the user
can't simply download the firmware itself (not that I particularly
like this solution).
Of course this can't be done on the Live CD until you install it on
the hard disk (if you feel like doing it) but then again I very much
doubt you can do serious low-latency work directly from CD - anybody
correct me if I'm wrong.
bye,
