I mean.. you press a button and here's a standard fill that everyone else is using as well.
To me, if you program stuff yourself, even tweak the sounds, resample your own stuff.. then you have YOUR sound 
Anyway.. my 2 cents I guess

I always get amazed when I hear this from so called, "artists" that refuse to use a so called band in a box keyboard. This is in part to the fact they are supposed to be so creative with original thoughts of sounds, lyrics, etc. yet they BLINDLY refuse to entertain the thought of even using an arranger for song construction. Some of the top artists use arrangers for that very purpose; putting song frameworks, composition, rehearsal, orchestration together.
Come to think of it, you can complain about the same thing about a Yamaha Motif or a Korg Triton with thier built in patterns, samples, and sequencers.
