Just knowing that someone says they did something, even granting that it's true, isn't all that useful, and really only newsworthy if what's being claimed is some how truly remarkable (like cold fusion using common kitchen utensils or something).

I've no doubt you can produce music on an iPad. I want to know what kind, how complex, what audio quality, using what software, etc.

It is truly remarkable that Damon Albarn is doing a Gorillaz-branded album entirely (or even mostly) on an iPad; he has ready access to every conceivable piece of studio technology, and is instead using the $1-$50 recording apps on the app store.

"he has ready access to every conceivable piece of studio technology, and is instead using the $1-$50 recording apps on the app store."

Was that in the linked article?

Is there a $100 recording app in the store? Sorry, I didn't know. I do have an inkling how much a pro setup costs, though.
