Why?

A $1,500 mic and a crappy band will still be a crappy band...albeit a well recorded crappy band...

Not necessarily so. Just a crappy band recorded using a $1,500 mic.

...do people think you have to spend megabucks for a damn microphone? You spend most of your life on stage and you will see people making amazing music, and they do NOT spend most of their pay on microphones. They're only a TOOL and no amount of money or bragging rights will ever make them a better singer. I've had singers sound like they were using a $ 20,000 mic, using a Shure SM 58. Money spent on brand names do NOT make you a better singer....OR musician.

why would you spend money on a lovely big LCD telly when it's only you and a few family members and mates gonna watch it! or buy that car you've always wanted? you're not gonna become a better driver!

just needed to justify to myself why i just spent 700 quid on a soundcard! (the actual answer of just being freaking insane is too uncomfortable at the moment )

Nope. You're dead wrong! Jesus didn't even spend money on wine. He made his own out of inexpensive water.

Many low cost mic manufacturers are doing the same thing according to their press releases.
