  1. "synthesizers haven't killed violins" -- tell that to legions of impoverished violinists. now every idiot can press a button to "make music". skill is dying. dude, it's not just changing the landscape, tech is plowing through the old and eviscerating it. am I saying synths are "bad"? nope. I'm just trying to be honest in appreciating the way in which music now is dehumanized and facile. "old" music still exists, cause some people love it. but those people who have little interest in music but do need it as a passing thing have no incentive to support it anymore, and culturally that is a problem.
