What has changed is production budgets. Ten years ago there was more
money available for hiring real musicians along with places to record
them in and technical personnel to do it. If you're recording soundtracks
for TV or film you need samples that are good enough to replace the
real thing unless you're lucky enough to be working on the biggest
productions.
