It's not that simple, though, is it? For a start, who decides what's decent software, and what's not? We all want stuff that works, obviously. All some of us will want to do is string together some sound samples and such, or play with midi synths, but others may wish to delve deep into the mysteries of sound, right down to the most basic wave-forms. No one program is ever going to address all needs at once.

That's true enough. Though there is always going to be a place for the command line, I hope (I may not use it much myself, but I recognise its importance). What we need is more musically-inclined users to get involved in the community. When you think about it, music itself is a kind of programming language, when it's written down.

I think you're quite right. More people that ever are creating content of various kinds, rather than just being pbuttive recipients of it, and to my mind that's a good thing and should be encouraged. Creative expression of all kinds can enrich people's lives.
