It's a fun way to pass the time, and if you're putting in just a particle of interactivity, that makes it exponentially more worthwhile than watching television or playing guitar hero. Wether or not anyone wants to hear it is a different story. <BR/><BR/>And I believe musical talent to be overrated. It's more important to be creative, regardless of technical ability. Microsoft songsmith and its ilk seem to suppress creative tendencies, but it's clearly a consumer product, not an artist's tool.stexehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12878333751031091867noreply@blogger.com
