True, and I'm a firm believer in quality versus quantity. In this case, 
theres a strong likelihood that it is both...which is truly extrodinary. When 
you see *why* this concept needs the space....it's for all the articulations 
and in-between the notes stuff....which is where are the current orch 
libraries fall way short. Also, you will be able to buy it in all kinds of 
flavors, big and small. The advantage for the pro composer is that all the 
articulations and phrasings are available for each instrument in every 
dynamic if you want them. If you don't need them, then you'll be able to get 
it more like a normal library for less money and expand from there. (At least 
that's how I understand it...Mark can clarify this if I'm wrong. I'm sure 
that much more detail about the pricing and structuring will be announced at 
AES.) It's really the ideal thing that everyone has been asking for....a 
flexible, expandable, upgradable and more importantly "matching" set of every 
articulations of every instrument in the orchestra. Pulling this off is no 
simple task, which is why I really admire and respect this effort they have 
made......extremely impressive.

No worries Igor!  Your opinions are totally valid, and I agree with much of 
what you said...I just wanted to set the record straight about how truly 
incredible this thing is going to be.

All the best,
