It has nothing to do with arrangements like this, and everything to
do with what the market is like. The linux DSP market right now is
non-existent - it'd help to have a multitrack DAW running, at least,

That said, though, things are moving fast in the Linux Audio world.
The first company to have a working DSP platform akin to other OS'es
will stand to gain a lot of ground ...
