Ah, but that's not what I meant. I'm actually refering to the employability of a highly trained musician in the field of music. With midi data, digital recording, and more related programs than I can shake a drumstick at, musicians often struggle to find a job in music in and of itself (music performed solely for the sake of music, and not for accompanying other forms of media). I actually had the opportumity to acquaint myself with an esteemed individual who went through years of higher education in music. At that time, she was a county librian in a location with a population likely under 100. Analog just doesn't sell the way it used to. Yes, I know analog is a bit extreme of an example. But I feel it somewhat supports the expressed oppinion exclusively, even if it doesn't fully express my views of music. But this reply is admittedly much too long at this point, and I probably seem like I'm rambling by now. So I'll close with this: Music is not dead, but diverse; if you don't like what you hear, you're just listening to the wrong song.
Instruments still mean something now. Just because an artist's taste don't match your own doesn't mean the music or instruments mean nothing. It simply means it means nothing to you.

I enjoyed it very much. I remember liking Melfina a lot actually. I'm not sure it aged well though

That IS really pretty. Even though you don't remember the anime too well, do you at least remember if you liked it? I might put it on my list.
Call it karma. Call it luck. Me, I just don't give a... BOUNCE!
