PHP may be a "scripting" language, however the act of using it IS programming. Why do you have to go to a lower level by calling me a smartass? It's really not that big of a deal.
Try reading the parent who seems to suggest that blacks are the only audience for this type of music. I was merely pointing out that this is not the case.
"Programming is the activity that involves a person writing instructions in a language closely related to the English language, in order to make a computer perform useful operations. These instructions collectively form a program, which is like a "recipe" for a computer, which it follows in order to perform useful operations. This program is then compiled by a compiler, into a form that the computer understands. This compiled program can then be run on a computer."
You hit it on the nose with Clear Channel. If you have a new artist you want to shop, you basically pay them a certain amount and they will guarantee you a certain position on the charts. They can do this because they pretty much own all the radio stations. I have seen this kind of nonsense with my own eyes. The music/broadcasting business is corrupt (not like everybody didn't already know this).

I love how this story follows the one about Dreamworks' Linux farm.
An important part of the ProTools equation is the hardware that goes along with the software. All audio inputs/outputs are made via external I/O modules which interface with proprietary cards in the computer. This provides many benefits the least of which is isolating the audio pathway from the inherent noise inside the computer.
Another reason is the excellent plug-in system. There are hundreds of plug-in modules that can do just about anything you could imagine to audio. You can even write your own plug-ins if you like.
Many people would be quite shocked as I was to see the AutoTune plug-in work for the first time. I have watched an engineer friend of mine raise and lower pitches of parts of notes to bring them in tune (which is an art form itself). This gives engineers and producers the ability to exercise a "record now fix later" production process at their discretion. There was a time not too long ago when the artist really had to be able to sing well in the studio. Now they can get pretty close and it will be fixed later.
There are many audio packages out there that sport similar features but the real answer to your question is that there is an extremely high level of quality associated with the entire system that is lacking in many mid and consumer level audio packages. Every part of a ProTools system is designed from the ground up to create pro level production quality audio.

How exactly is visiting Starbucks considered being different?

It is not programming because...?
You may be surprised to learn that a large percentage of Hip-Hop sales are to middle class white kids.
I didn't think people this close-minded read this site. You have been well trained. Sit, boy.
