Mr Koval, I understand your opinion! It was never my intention to imply that a sample piano is better than the real thing, but it certainly is cheaper. I already have a good HiFi, the keyboard and sample set could be had for less than £1000, which saves me about £74,000 on the real thing. Purely subjectivley I would say that the midi+sample solution sounds better than most £1000 pianos. I wonder if you can get keyboards that have a "real" action - that is a major drawback IMO.
