For many musicians the tools and workflow are a big part of the enjoyment and of the creative process. While software on an iPad or a laptop these days can essentially make any style of music without the need for additional hardware, there's a sizable group for whom that process isn't inspiring or enjoyable. There's definitely a lot of gear fetishism in the music scene which is definitely its own problem, but I think that there's value in making music with the tools that work for you, rather than just with what's cheapest, highest-tech, or most versatile.
