For those of you who read Keyboard Magazine.....March 2017 is the last edition.....in print. I don't remember if it will be online. She DID say a small "section" of Electronic Musician (magazine) will be dedicated to Keyboard Magazine readers starting in June.

It's a personal loss for me as I've read every issue to date since it began publishing back in the 60's or 70's.

The world of printed material is slowly evaporating. Books, newspapers, magazines, and last month my bank sent out notices stating they will no longer be providing free account statements, but......fortunately (?).......you can print it out from online sources. Also, our state attempted to pass a decree allowing all towns to post public notices, you guessed it...online (instead of printed in the newspaper so the common people can read them).

Goody, goody.....I now have a method to ruin my eyes...reading newspapers and magazines on line. And I can now open the front door to hackers by accessing my bank account online.

I can see the day coming when all music will be online purchases that one will have to print out. That's good news for printer and ink manufacturers. Time to buy some stock.

I'm wondering if there's a way to entertain live audiences.......ONLINE? Maybe videotape one hour of your music, put it ONLINE, hawk your wares, and when someone decides they want YOU......well.....you process their credit card and give them the password for the whole 60 minutes. They can only use it once......however they want to present it at their party or senior residence.

Heck.......Microsoft did it.......why shouldn't we?
