I have 4 screens and depending on them I use it vertically and 
horizontaly.
The vertical ones I use because I like it better. It also is not in the 
way of e.g. the brower. It gives me just a bit more brower estate, as 
text tend to go not as wide. Think e.g. Imgur.com

As screens are wider than they are long I can put two of them next to 
each other and still have a good experience.

The horiwontal ones I use for e.g. the screen that I use to watch 
movies. They will no be in the way of where the movie is. I make that 
one transparent when I am not over it, have it in front of other 
programs, so I do not see it when I watch a movie, but can go and change 
to a diffeent desktop if I so desire.

As I have different screens, I have had issues with (I think. Unable to 
verify as I am not on my machine) the volume that only was able to show 
on one at a time.

Kind regards,
