If I import some musicXML the virtual instruments sound
much better than the standard midi output of either timidity or

Isn't this just a question of which soundfont is bundled? We distribute
Denemo with a samll (5Mb) soundfont not to waste people's bandwidth
when, if they care, they will use one of the many free sound fonts that
suit their needs. For my own use I have a 100 Mb single harpsichord stop
patched in, replacing the grand piano.

Of course. There are some really nice soundfonts out there. And I can
use aeolus with jack and timidity with kellner tuning to try, if
something is sounding on a baroque organ.
And I can use one of the many free soft synths.
But I have to install it and prepare it to do this.
If I use one of the apps I mentioned, it all is sounding out of the box
- nice, like most things we hear nowadays in the radio.
The question is, if users are willing to invest that work.
Cheers,
