> First - we lost the live chanting due to recorded recitals with human voice. Then we lost the experience of presence due to online streaming. And now even human voice is lost - the broken chanting is generated.

This is not true at all. Live chanting, live pUjAs, etc. are still very much practiced. It's just that recorded versions also became available, making our lives richer.

The same applies to other art forms. E.g., bharatanATyam is still performed live, but we also have recorded performances. That is a good thing!
