John,

"I'm afraid this new udio thing will give users a false sense of accomplishment."

and

"Nothing better than the real thing - that comes with hard work."

--really sound elitist and rub me wrong.

Accomplishment, hard work, the real thing. You sound like YOUR way is the ONLY TRUE way. Why can't it be okay for someone to enjoy messing around with Udio?

Maybe some don't want to take the time to learn how to play music, get a DAW, microphone, learn how to mix?

Why isn't it okay to just want to make something, NOW, without having to spend a ton of money and learn a bunch of stuff?

Certainly, doing those things can be very rewarding, like you say.

It can be instantly gratifying, though, to know very little about music, and to be happily delighted by Udio's output.

That's all. I love you and don't think you a snob. But to me, those statements have "elitist" written all over them.

Why so "my way or the highway?"

There are many paths to enlightenment, and many paths to happiness.

Not everyone shares your musical goals.


Just sharing my opinion, Michel. I thought you would be open to other opinions.
