   @pufffdragon: ‘cos a real ocarina doesn’t network ‘cross the globe. So, it’s up to you: what do you want to achieve? Just play a tune and leave a reverberation in the air around you, or play a tune and leave a reverberation in the aether for someone Across the Universe to “hear”?

   @patentstillpending: That depends what you’ll play. Then again, playing “chopsticks” on the World’s best piano is just as “hard” as on a child’s tinkertoy piano. The question is what can one do with this new instrument, and THAT’s what’s exciting about it. It will never replace a Stradivarius or a Steinway, but it will create a niche of its own.

   @extremevalid

   Erm…no? If you can’t read music/understand how music works, how the hell do you expect to be able to play a virtual instrument? If you ask me, this is a perfect way to test an instrument. This isn’t like Guitar Hero/Rockband, where you press some button combos a perform a sick tune. Never in a million years will this replace a proper orchestra, but perhaps create a new movement in music. I’m really shocked at the stupidty here.

   No need to dedicate yourself to learning an instrument anymore.. A bunch of weird looking people have done it for you.. Brave new world of instant gratification. Everything these days has to be RTS (right this second) and because you get it instantly there is no real enjoyment as you get from a real instrument. Because there is no struggle to learn the phone blown thingy, its discarded just as quickly as the app was down loaded…..

    i wonder how hard it would be to go from playing guitar to playing an electronic device. hmm should be as easy as playing a video game Im guessing.

    It’s impressive and all, but why not use a real Ocarina? Real one is more sociable and sounds better and it looks a lot cooler when you play it.
