"I foresee a marked deterioration in American music and musical taste, an interruption in the musical development of the country, and a host of other injuries to music in its artistic manifestations, by virtue -- or rather by vice -- of the multiplication of the various music-reproducing machines."
John Philip Sousa, "The Menace of Mechanical Music," Appleton's Magazine, Vol. 8 (1906).
