Why do you think that I lack the qualification to judge what's lousy, doctored "music"...?

How definitive can you be about something so subjective? You can only judge what's lousy to your ears. To the degree that others agree with you, so be it. That's more tribal than anything else. I know you're a smart guy with a lot of depth because we're forum mates. But it's fun to nip at your heels and be bothersome. :-)
