Interesting.

I think the market will eat this stuff up if made
available.  But I'm not sure if that's a good thing. 
You won't even have to learn to play an instrument any
more right, or learn to compose?  Just come up with a
new song from the computer program.  Hopefully, folks
will just use this for entertainment rather than as a
substitution for doing the real work.

Cope of course has been doing this stuff for years,
but of course he HAS put in the work.  So it's
different.

It will be interesting to see where this goes.
