Do we all have memories THAT short?

Doesn't anyone remember what happened to 'home organs' before they went extinct (in any practical sense of the word)?

Yep... they got expensive as hell, as fewer and fewer people used them, and the only market the manufacturers could make a living from (and still is, today, in fact) was wealthy retirees with more sense than money and a nostalgia for the instruments they learned on.

Remember how most of us scoffed at the last organ holdouts, as they payed 5 figure prices for things that any passable arranger, synth or WS could outperform? Welcome to THEIR world!

Either the arranger manufacturers have to do SOMETHING to attract the younger players that are changing (or not even playing to begin with) to WS's en masse, or the Audya's price is only the START...
