I've used linux alot in the past and run my "server" on it (in reality, its just a 16 year laptop running ubuntu server) but kept running into problems with installing winamp and itunes.

• I use itunes mainly for my ipod photo and while I should be using rockbox i've had lots of reliablity problems.
• Winamp is my media player, it does have its problems and they are obviously scrapping the bottom of the barrel with there addition of an NFT library, but I find its charm more then makes up for its problems.

However, I'm building a new pc soon and am planning on dual booting with priority on linux, currently planning on Kubunbtu but likely to change. For my use case, Linux is better suited in almost every way and I plan on using Qemu to run MacOS and use GarageBand as well as older windows for the sake of game support.May even attempt GPU pass-through to use Final-cut
