I think it comes down to the "honor system". While it really dosen't matter how you record a song, maybe the performer could tell us if any editing was done AFTER recording. And possibly inform us of how they edited the song. That way we will all know how to achieve a better recording of our own.

To me, substituting sounds, fill-ins, tempo, etc. after Easy Recording is indeed "editing" and probably should not be classified as Easy Record.

So maybe there should be 2 catagories:

1. Easy Record No Edit (Saved exactly as played)

or

2. Easy Record Edited (Saved after some modifications)

I like both recording styles, however, I agree with Colin, its nice to know if the recording was done live with no edits.
