Alex,

You must have been thinking about this a lot longer than me!

Most of your points are about getting the quality right for professional performing artsists. The product that I had in mind would be sold mainly to home-users. Most $1200 keyboards are used by home-users and they wouldn't have to much problems with the things you described.

About the style copyrights, the styles on the net are not all owned by Yamaha. A lot are user-made. Above that Yamaha has openly declared that styles that are no longer sold by them (in keyboards or on diskettes) can be used freely for non-commercial use.
