Jriver Media Center 19 on Linux

[fac3l3ss]

This are exciting times to be a linux user. I know that linux is all about freedom and open-source, but I see colaborative path between the development of a open-source OS (Linux) and some proprietary programs. That said, it seems that the availability of steam for linux pulled the attention of other companies to linux as a viable platform. Now a great program I use in Win, Jriver Media Center 19, is now being ported to Linux, though it only supports audio in this platform (I only care about the audio features of Jriver MC anyway). So, now I have a media center on linux that can manage to play hi-res files FLAC, APE and most importantly for me DSD audio formats like DST, DFF and SACD-R isos. Jriver MC is still in development so is not ready for primetime, but that aside it already plays audio quite well on my systems with a sound card (Xonar D2X) or with a DAC (in my case Meridian Explorer).
