That goes for *anything* we do for entertainment -- including
academic music / musicology / history / lilypond work / etc.
Any one of us could have devoted our lives to researching ways of
creating clean water, or researching how to reducing pollution
from energy sources (or making more energy-efficient appliances),
or simply volunteering to teach basic mathematics and literacy to
the illiterate (either in our own countries, or in other
countries).
I really, honestly, love Vocaloid ("that waste of time"). On an
objective level, it's allowed many people to create music. On a
subjective level, listening (and watching) Vocaloid music has
brought me more pleasure than *any* academic music composition
(going back as far as the Rite of Spring, which may or may not be
considered to be "academic", but it was covered in my second-year
music theory course, so there).
Cheers,
- Graham
