I hear you and agree with the first part. We are an election away from it being true. The left used to be adamantly against censorship, against any war and against doing things like forcing experimental medicine on everyone, including kids. Now many have and continue to suffer and die because of it and BOTH sides pushed or, or at least went along with it, in government. A music creation software, however, did not bring any of it on. Is there a downside? Maybe but kids don't get music lessons any more unless they are wealthy. They rarely play in bands anymore unless they have stage parents pushing them. But giving powerful creation tools has far more upside. Now any songwriter can prove their ideas are viable. I would still have real musicians record an album, but I have access to the talent and I have resourcefulness to make it happen. Many have the money to do it today, but that excludes 99%. This is what allows labels and publishers, the usual suspects, to control access, create artificial scarcity, and then torment and destroy those who ask for and need their help reach an audience. This tech helps get away from that. As it gets better (it still has plenty of flaws) you will build your own studio session and instruct each instrument how you want them to play, you will do as much in running the boards as you please with help or solo or maybe with templates for how famous producers once did it. All these these are 90% done, but perfecting them will take a lot of work and learning. These systems are getting more feedback from users giving simple thumbs up, neutral or down feedback over mass scale and over mass songs. I have produced way over 200 songs, and about 40 are essentially great demos. None are release ready, but the results inform me so I rewrite and rewrite in a pseudo studio environment. I look forward when it is like the real thing. I hope I am around long enough. Films will be next. I hope I get to see that too.

No one is being stopped fom doing things old school. But the truth is 98% of new music is produced using VERY advanced tools. This just puts them all at your fingerprints for $10 bucks a month.
