My mileage varies; in my experience, Debian in 2014 is a higher-quality
distribution than Debian in 2004. The obvious example is that sound (for
all practical purposes) Just Works on my current Debian system (all I
had to do was pop open pavucontrol and tweak the sliders), whereas in
2004 or 2006 it definitely didn't Just Work.
I agree 100%. For MY needs, with many different audio sources, pulse
works a charm. One click, instead of hand edits to some file, and I can
change to any of them instantly, and that is a huge leap forward.
Granted it is not the audiophile's dream, for commercial production, but
for the average Joe Lunchbucket it works fine. :) Ric
