well @varunprabhakar, if u don't want any pain, then go for propreitary linux, suse! But if u can handle a lil pain in free linux distros, then u'll be promised lifetime of freedom.
Neways for Linux distros, its actually upto u, which u see as most easy. I find fedora 5 and knoppix most easy and comfortable for me! Most people think Suse and ubuntu are easy . So its upto u to decide. Don't worry media files and net are as simple as in windows. Neways to be frank, I find them much simpler and easier than in windows!
