recent switcher here...
maybe it would be helpful to have some info like that here on this forum?
i know that was one of the toughest things to figure out when i switched...
how do i replace x?
how to i get the same functionality out of y that i got out of z?
i mean i'm sure a lot of it you could find by doing clever searches, but it would be pretty handy to have all that info in one place (like the linked sites). but if it had a sort of a this = that format with a quick summary that compares contrasts the software, that would rock...
i know i needed to find replacements for programs like:
windows media player with encoder and dvd plug-in (itunes didn't cut it)
Easy CD Creator
forte agent
ACDSee
WinRAR
it took me some time to find replacements (unison, audion, stuffit and 'split and concat'), and i still havent found a real good replacement for ACDSee, just a few fair to middling pretenders - including iphoto.
