I am concerned by audio production and know a lot of people using Ubuntu for that, no one use the alternative cd/dvd install: it is not user friendly, and install too much stuff. Who need a menu full of things he/she will not use ?

This is the same if you work on a video sound track with Ardour+Xjadeo: you need the real time kernel for jackd responsiveness. > Anyway, since then and only after many years of being stuck dual-booting > with WinXP, I've migrated all my work as a Photographic and Digital > Imaging Professional onto the Linux platform.

As I have already said, I think Ubuntu Studio community would be more useful providing good backports for multimedia production, maintain the ubuntu-studio-menu and some other useful packages/tools/gui/apps. And have a good and simple website like playdeb or getdeb, more documented and in several languages.
