Some people would argue that the opening up aspect of tools like Live/Reason which are more accesable are a good reason for the decline in techno which everyone keeps going on about but I never see. A similair thing has been said about DJ's now as well, everyone wants to be a DJ and everyone and their dog has a set of decks in some form they can play about which is just saturating the market with pish DJs. Reason has arguably led to an increase in rubbish records as people put anything out desperate to be the next big thing.

It's not something that's ever seriously worried me like it does other people, I mean yeah sure it'll lead to lots of pish being spat out like babies from the mothers womb as they write their demand for more suport moey from the dole, but I've never had a problem with picking through the pish to find the good stuff. After all it's the bad stuff that forms the contrast that lets you define what is good. But a lot of people seem to think more people will just be killing the scene by dilluting already sparse amount of money available in the music production stakes.
