Cultural Collapse, or just Busy Commuters?

[RandomPscho]

Even if you don't like classical music, if you know anything about music at all, you can tell the difference between a prodigy playing exceptional music on an exceptional instrument, and some random hack playing the right-hand of chopsticks on a piano.

When played on a street, 95% of people would probably just ignore it and walk quickly past, as if it will prevent the guilt of not giving money to a person who probably needs it. Besides, the focus is not that people are ignoring the music and do not care for the music, the point of the article is to show how people react, and the good musician is thrown in because it would be pointless to have somebody that is awful playing music. Less people would donate if the player was terrible.
