Also, about the ease of learning thing, I found guitar incredibly difficult to learn, due to the closeness of the strings, and the finesse that it takes to be good with it. I was originally a clarinetist, then I went to sax, not a hard change. But, after that, I switched to bass trombone, which is about as different from clarinet as you can get. One would think that this would be a difficult change, but it only took me a few months to have it playable. On the other hand, I've been working on guitar for the last 10 or so months, and I'm nowhere near the level I was at after the few months of trombone. That's just me though, lol.

How much you want to bet they'll spin this to blame DJ Hero sales on PC pirating?


Edit: oooh, wow, I made an awesome pun and didn't even realize it.
