It's the same as all new technology. It's cool if you either a) are the first person to do it or b) are cleverer about it than the last person who tried it AND it's musically relevant. Technology and ability are all means toward the ends of realising your visions. Using Linux deals with most of the ethical issues. So, it's not so much that you can't produce Boy Bands using Linux, just that Linux is a bit more picky about its Boy Bands. ;] -- cheers, tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk/tim
