Not always, its basically users choice now. I personally use Adobe Audtition 3 over most music programs, and my DAW programs are all windows aps also. Photoshop is the premire photo ap, and Gimp is a great freeware ap. In video production - Final Cut is still the major one, but Adobe CS series is not far behind. We stopped using Macs when the hardware would break (no OS problems) and we needed exact duplicates to replace them with. It was easier to get a dedicated PC and be able to service our own machines. We now have 2 Macs that do nothing at all (with Final Cut Pro on them). We now use the Adobe suite (primary) with Ulead and Vegas as other options. We haven't looked back since.
