I've only made it through the first two pages of this thread but it reminds me a lot of a forum thread we had late last year. It was basically about whether or not BIAB could create modern sounding music in which my response was... "Hold my beer. I got this." lol

That turned into this song...

Perhaps an even better example would be this collaboration I did in February for FAWM...

So obviously modern country is more than possible with BIAB. I also don't think it would be too much of a stretch to use BIAB for modern pop music. Now some genres such as rap and techno/dance may be a little more difficult but there are already other programs that people use to create that kind of music. There really is no need for BIAB to compete in that market.
