[LAU] Harrison Mixbus on Linux still relevant, used?

Hi LAUs,

I have often considered getting Harrison Mixbus as a 'more pro' version 
of Ardour which has always seemed a rather competitive pricepoint in the 
market, strong Linux commitment and familiarity with Ardour workflow.

I'm wondering what impact their (now 1 year-old) announcement about not 
developing plug-ins for Linux any more have on Linux users potentially 
buying a license? [1]

It seems the plug-ins they are referring to are not the ones shipped 
with mixbus, which if I also understand correctly are 'mixbus only' 
plugins. It wouldn't seem to hint to any drop of Linux support in 
general ("There are no plans to discontinue Mixbus or XT software for 
Linux users, this applies to the plug-ins only").

Something else I'm also wondering, and I understand this might be a bit 
more of an 'edge' question, is if / how supporting mixbus by buying it 
also somehow supports Ardour of if direct support to Ardour is better / 
preferred.

I understand these questions could be more relevant asked directly in 
the specific lists / fora of these software but I do think that with 
both now being cross-platform a Linux angle might be interesting (and 
these are and have been Linux Audio 'flagship' software...) :-)

Curious about ideas / experiences / thoughts.

Lorenzo
