Nathan,
Basically, unless you have something exotic to do in Fedora/Linux , there
will not be a need to purchase any software. I mean, if you have some
money
to spare, you can always fund a linux project. Otherwise I'm guessing you
will find the software frely available will meet your needs. There are of
course exceptions.
While you may find some people here familiar with what Crossover Office
supports, your best bet is just asking for a advice on a similar Linux
applicaiton, or sending these type of questions to the Crossover Office
suite.
I know there is suppose to be a distro more multimedia oriented than
Fedora
(I can't remember which) but in all fairness you can get Fedora to be as
multimedia oriented as your heart desires.
In terms of playback, a combination of mplayer and a suitable (easily
obtainable) plugin will/should meet any of your needs.
I somewhat disagree that you can make i as multimedia oriented as required.
I haven't tried othere distro's re multimedia - but I know from trying
that midi support is poor. I have been forced to remain a partial user
because of the slow coming progress in this field - I have to run my
studio projects in windows.
Good luck
