Well, it all depends :-)
I my world there's a group of users for whose field standard MIDI just does'nt work: teaching
and researching professional piano playing. The main obstacle is (the missing) velocity/volume/attack speed
resolution. So our teachers and researchers need to use the partly-proprietary Yamaha Disklavier.
So,for them, a modern MIDI 2 is appreciated.
