I appreciate you taking my question in the spirit it was meant, and the thoughtful response.

I guess what rubbed me the wrong way about CEO Douchebag's comment was that it discounts just how relatively enormous of an expense production can be for the small artists trying to make a living. I've spent some time in the music industry and it has left me with a bad taste in my mouth. The necessary evil of commerce intersecting with art is a big reason for that, especially coming to the realization of just how necessary that evil is.

But yes I agree, it is definitely possible to create excellent art of high technical quality from home.
