Of course, Linux users need not pay for anything, including illegal codecs which used(?) to be an issue with some of the conscientious. However, while I have tried my every Linux distrto, and installed Mint for a brother is used daily on an older but capable (4.2 Ghz CPU) rig, yet as explained, I do not switch to Linux since there is no need, as the time it would take to attain the level of functionality and enhancements I can easily obtain under Windows (which I thereby find more functional, despite MS attempts to improve it) is not yet warranted. Thank God for options and tools however.
