I meant the making of music is "democratic", not the manufacture, sale, promotion, and/or distribution of it. Somebody's music need not be spread to the masses to exist and be democratic. Perhaps that kewl new game "Record Producer Hero" will "democratize" the sale and promotion of music, kinda like Zoo Tycoon did to the building and managemtn of zoos and Roller Coaster Tycoon did to the design of coasters.
