Em on guitar doesn't sound just like Cm .. quick example

well, if you are comparing an open Em to a Cm I'd agree there is some difference due to the ordering of the notes and perhaps quantity of each note in the set of 6 strings. but if I play the Em at the 7th fret as a barre or with a capo and then play the Cm at the 3rd fret I'd think they are identical (again except for pitch).
