 I recommend whatever provides the most bang for the buck
 for YOUR situation.

 If you're cheap, and "free" rises above all else, Riv is a true
 professional option. Designed by broadcasters for the professional
 broadcaster, and all that entails. Not a compromise or a toy.

 If you're after "close to free" then Paravell Systems will supply
 a turn-key Rivendell studio package with a year of commercial support
 for around $3500, supported by the same people who were there
 the first day, when it was just an idea, and have been there since.
 THAT is very difficult to beat !

 It's Linux for a reason, and that reason is NOT cost !

 If something else works better for YOU, then that is what you
 should do.
 No system is McSystem, one size fits all !
 They ALL have their advantages, and disadvantages.
