Re: [PLUG] Recommendations for Linux Distro for Content Creation?

[Michael Lazin via plug <plug@lists.phillylinux.org>]

I have experience with ubuntu studio for content creation and it is great.  If you are one of the few who want to produce music on linux it has the realtime kernel and Jack built in so you can do midi and use stuff like guitarix for guitar effects, I  haven't used it in a while but it is great and easy to use.

if you "dislike having to constantly patch/update/reboot", then Arch is
likely not going to be your thing (but neither will Gentoo). both, being
rolling distros, expect your system to regularly be kept up to date.

as for what Arch's "deal" is, i'll let them explain it.[0]
