It's worrying to read this article. I've been thinking it for a while but it's a great concern for the music industry in my opinion. Games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band are preventing kids from learning to play actual instruments. It's certainly easier, cheaper, quieter and more fun than trying to learn an actual instrument. But it's a concern that kids will become so obsessed with these games that the concept of playing a real guitar will be far too much effort for them and that'll lead to less bands starting up.
