sooner or later someone on the konqueror team (or some random someone somewhere, probably coding it right now) will release a free equivalent of this program, i really think...
see, if you had been running windows xp then all that would have happened was the files would all be converted to a secure media format by the windows media format converter wizard and then everytime you tried to play one it would contact the riaa and fine you.

go there to get a low latency kernel patch
then grab any one of the numerous linux audio editors (i recommend the art of noise, audacity, and protux, in that order)
then grab any one of the numerous midi/audio sequencers : jazz (audio/midi), rosegarden (midi), soundtracker (audio), muse (midi/limited audio), brahms (midi/limited audio)
then u can go and grab any one of the numerous softsynths (freebirth, spiralsynth), or a modular synth like pd or arts which probably came with your distribution.
then there are also the various ladspa plugins, lots of them at that, supported by most of the above apps.
you can make decent music in linux, dont listen to the losers with money out their ass telling you that you need 200 grand worth of gear to make anything, they are just ppl with too much cash who for some reason assume everyone else either has as much money to piss away as they do (i wish i did, id have a pile of gear too ok) or would rather have a pile of gear than say, a house, or a car.
yeah thats really helpful
i guess if you arent rich dont even bother making music you dont have any right to
note that all those professionals started out rich and with a full studio of gear
like this guy who probably just finished working on the new nsync track
dont tell anyone, but alot of tracks u are hearing on vinyl are produced on sub-$300 soundcards on pcs like mine (p3 600mhz, ata33 hds)
ive only gotten upto 32 tracks of audio in VST going w/o problems, and then only in win98 w/ latency of about 8-10ms.
i personally havent had any dropouts in recording
on my dinky ide ata33 setup, but then 16bit 44khz works for me just fine:)
so anyways, yeah u probably need to spend 20 grand if u want to be the next BT but you can make some phat trax with just your pc and less than your life-savings worth of cash, ppl do it all the time.
there are several low-latency kernel patches, up to and including 2.4.10 kernels...

check there
u can get down to at least 8ms

I would have to agree with that. By the way I was sure to register "Porno Sex Bomb Making Land" ( a fictitious website, ahem ) with SafeSurf.
