What exactly is criticism and what is opinion? Who can criticize and who can be entitled to express his opinions? Does it take a "higher authority" (more experienced mucisian) to criticize?
Well, guys,

I recored the three songs that you've probably listened to from my web site. I gave the CD to a girl as a present for her 23rd birthday. Although I had received a very positive feedback for my music from the sophisticated audience of Synthzone, the girl didn't say a word. I didn't know if she listened to the CD.

Lack of feedback means lack of respect. She'd better say 'George, your music is total crap'.

And don't get me started about IF the person who plays/sings is WILLING and OPEN enough to hear opinions and criticism and transform them into lessons for the future. Most of the time, IMHO, probably not.
Well, why posting on the synthzone then? Are we like that famous Roman singer (forgot the name) who used to pay to certain people among the audience to clap to his performances?

Best regards,
George
