Usually you find a linux distro comes with free software in opensuse & ubuntu's case this can be up to 2000 packages. BJ is right with ubuntu studio, also you could try opensuse, often linux distros come with a broken video player, this is because of licensing restrictions. but it's easy to download the codecs & rpms to make this work. email me if you go for opensuse & I can point you in the right direction for the codecs etc. Any linux distro will do, you can download and install any of the software packages on any of the distros, linux is an OS which like windows has 3rd party software which can be added.
