But you cant blame S&S for trying.............. >Ahhhh...marketing, the price we pay for a free market/capitalistic society. Just remember that many marketing techniques ( annoying and tenacious as they tend to be), are generally proven through marketing studies demonstrating buying trends of potential buyers. The better the marketing the better the sales, the better the chances of survival. Like it or not, volitility is ever-present in all businesses. Steinway, in my opinion, has been masterfull through all these years at marketing their product. They have effectively convinced generations that their product,and only their product, should be the instrument of choice. Argue if you will, but they have effectively drilled that message loud and clear. And lastly, the last count I took of remaining US piano manufacturers , the Steinway & Sons Piano Company still continues to be tops of that list.
