What is the difference between

1.) Sampling a real snare sound 2.) Suno generating a couple random snare hits for you to choose from

? There are ways to use it that aren't far-removed from how real producers work.

It's different to say "Generate me top-40 Sounding pop song"... But Suno has more uses than that.

There are already royalty free drum samples for days, and infinite possibilities of drum synthesis. No producer is hurting for snare samples. Why would I pay money for something I already have.

Tweaking drum sounds until they sound good is one of the more satisfying activities for a beat producer, and one of the primary ways I demonstrate my value. I’m not paying to turn that over to someone else.

I don't oppose synthesis or samples. But arguably Suno songs typically goes way little beyond that. If you didn't chose the samples, didn't chose the words, didn't chose the voice, but vibed for a few mins what you did is not made a song, you heard a song. And the songs suck.
