None of these marketing-driven hardware/software companies will ever be
open source friendly, it's a threat to their business model. Open
drivers make it impossible for your marketing department to lie about
the capabilities of the hardware. For example, google for "Fraudigy".

Fortunately it does not matter as we have Ardour.
