I should add its not a genuine sid station - much in the same way a hoover is a brand of vacuum cleaner rather than an actual term for a vacuum cleaner

Same reason anyone would get excited over a lump of cheap wood with a few variations on microphones implanted on it and some strings hung over it - because it makes a great noise
