MediaJukebox for Linux?
« on: May 17, 2002, 11:31:30 am »

Just wondering if there's any chance you might consider a Linux version of MediaJukebox.

Thanks,

Vince

lol,
I'm guessing but I reckon they're gonna say no.
Not much profit in porting it to Linux unless they charged a fortune to cover their production costs for the port.

I'd like to see it happen.  But as Nila points out porting to Linux probably isn't an economically feasible idea: little or no ROI.

I wonder if there's any companies out there that produce Win32 API emulation libraries?  That would make the engineering effort less daunting.  There's still the marketing, support, etc. issues that get more difficult when you start having multiple platforms...

We're porting some of what we do to linux.  It will take a while.
