      The year that happens would be the year of Linux desktop. Which is also said to be a not-so-distant future for over a decade.

      Could be, but the rumor of something like this happening had existed since the Vista era.

      I don’t think it’s happening mostly because there is no real benefit for Microsoft. IP holders are not hounding Microsoft, and their store market share is inexistent.

      Buuuuuuuuut just in case I use arch (btw)

      For a while Sony TVs didn’t allow the playback of .MKVs because they were the most pirated format.

      It’s kinda the Media Players choice what formats they want to support in the end.
