My 2 cents, from my little experience:
Ubuntu was a great choice in its moment. Simplified the debian
philosophy, allowed any newbie to install and listen mp3, view movies,
i.e. start working and enjoying. Fedora, Suse, Mandrake, etc, needed
some workarounds and bash-ing for many things to start working. Was very
stable and had almost no bugs. Had a lot of publicity, Ubuntu is
supported by a wealthy sponsor. Nowadays, keeps its goodness, although
the rest of distros had learn a lot from Ubuntu. Fedora, I suppose,
learned good lessons from Ubuntu (example: Fedora Live) in order to keep
its market place.
Cheers!
