Did you learn to read ?
I have a lot of respect for people making music as a hobby. Sometimes, believe me, I wish it was my case. I don't like them having no respect for the people that are doing this for a living and that are kind enough to help them on music forums such as this one.
I know you have a taste for distortion on the 2buss, but please, don't distort my words.

if you are so busy recording **** and tired to deal with bedroom type enthusiasts, you can go back to your air conditioned studio and jerk off over your collection of gear.
I'm not recording ****, I'm in a position where I don't have to record crap. I mix record recorded in bedrooms as well, go figure. That's what I love in my craft : I'm able to work in hi end studio, and with small budget as well. I'm more open minded than you think. And btw, I love my job. I'm sad to see it destroyed by idiots in record companies or everywhere in this music business.

oh and i hate steinways by the way. they sound like **** and they are played by dinosaur type musicians with too much money and a bad taste for hair inplants.
That say it all about your experience with pianos. I won't have time to explain why you are wrong, it's a waste of time. But I think you don't look that bright now, imho.

No surprise you are tired of your job. i'm not a big fan of S. Albini but he wrote a few good things about the music recording biz and its aura of bull****.
i've posted my original question here believing i could get some opinions from enthusiasts, not some half ******** babble from a bitter dino on his way to rigor mortis.
I'm making quite a good year now. With gold and platinum on my wall. I have a lot of respect for Steve Albini, I'm not sure you fully understand where we both comming from.
and btw, Steinway is not my favorite piano on every occasions, and I like "D" with large orchestra or in solo. But I wouldn't dare to say they suck like you just did. Just for you not to look like an arse next time you say something about them.
