I'm sorry, I actually meant to write "some" instead of "many".
The ones I can test right now are REAPER all versions on all systems
(Windows, Mac, Linux with Wine) and Cakewalk 8 on Windows (pretty old; I
don't know about newer versions).
I remember having used other ones that didn't accept *.midi files, but I
don't have them here.
But I realize that this might be a bit too little to deserve a change in
LilyPond.
The only remaining argument in favor of changing LilyPond's default is
that *.mid files are more widespread in my experience, but this could be
only my experience and might also not warrant a change.
Best wishes.
