Aside from my sex drive, I'd say prices for keyboards has actually gone down. My KeyB Duo MK111 cost about 1k more than a new legend (not the 'Live'). Also, orchestral sounds (but not analog synth sounds) and acoustic instrument sounds (guitar, etc.) have gotten better, especially on the MOTL arrangers. Vocal processors marginally improved. In fact, a capable performer could put on a totally acceptable performance with 10 yr. old arrangers (think G70, Audya, etc.). In my opinion, the improvements made are more important to the performer than to the audience. JMO.
