[Fmpro] anyone seen this technology?? O.o

Yea Louis, I agree that technology is luscious and the benefits are  
amazing. I just think we need to all consider the ramifications, I  
forget all the time wrapped up in samplers and computers. Just don't  
forget when you use that technology to bypass that session that you  
save some cash on, those musicians didn't get paid for a job that  
might have been, and you have affected change in the structure we have  
and since you have affected it, you must gestalt and see what the  
consequences will/might be.

What will the shape of the business of Film Music (composers,  
orchestras, orchestrators, copyists, etc) be in 20 years? 50 years? Do  
you even care? (not saying you don't, just a question to all)
