Oh yes, heresy!   It is a sign of the new digital age when listeners only have the capability to hear things in small, discrete packages that are as easily digestible as regurgitated Cream of Wheat.  Actually, I write in jest but it does remind me of the scene in Amadeus when the emperor tells Mozart that his new opera has "too many notes."  Mozart, of course, suggests the emperor tell him which ones to remove.  Good practice for editing, though.  There might be a career in that.

	I agree that it's kind of a waste of time, but it's fun to do and I do it myself sometimes. People can do whatever they want, I don't see why people are getting so prissy about this... It's not like he thinks he's better than the artist, he just has fun trying to condense the artist's work and having it all still make sense. Power to you!
	Nothing to say here. Nothing at all. Nothing is easy.

	No, I think people who complain about filler and what-not should do just that, then STFU.

	It's not heretic: it's just a pointless way to kill time. And a creative way to insult people's works, too.
