Great post, Chay, thanks for your in-depth thoughts on the subject! Let me say that Suno has been the most fun I've had with music since PG introduced Real Tracks. (And BTW, RTs sound much better than Suno arrangements IMHO.) My songs, particularly my lyrics, really mean a lot to me, so allowing them to shine with a first rate vocal from Suno has given me immense pride and pleasure. In the past, top vocalists like Deej, Greg, and Beth have sung some of my songs, for which I will be forever grateful. Marty, too. He's done a great job on my blues songs. And fiverr vocalists were quite useful until inflation kicked in. That still left me with a lot of songs sitting on the shelf. Now, thanks to Suno (and BIAB, of course), those songs have been brought to life. I'm just really, really happy - I feel like a huge bucket list item has finally been checked off. It will be interesting to see what Suno's trajectory will be. But at this moment, it certainly fulfilled a musical need for me.
