re: becoming well known due to a cover song, no I was not referring to NIN, merely a stray rant.
re: NIN and computer usage, many people feel strongly about the presence of "computer generated music", I'll include a couple of links, especially ones that relate specifically to NIN. And while Trent can pick up a guitar and claim contributions in the liner notes, and a fan based soliluqy (man I KNOW I spelled that one wrong) might hint otherwise, NIN is VERY MUCH majority computer based, not real drums, not real guitars. You are correct in that "100% computer generated" is a stretch, apologies.
