This looks awesome. I love apps that go after markets that would typically be thought of as "unsexy".

From the looks of it you get the game like elements of a Rockband, but a longer term benefit of learning to read music. I imagine it will be kind of lame on the phone due to size, but with an iPad or keyboard accessory it will be amazing.

I'm not sure how big the market for sheet music is. However, consider the kind of people who learn to play instruments: children of well educated, affluent parents. The addressable market could be bigger than a lot of markets that seem large on PowerPoint slides, but are unaddressable because of market limitations (e.g. iLike).

If you can pay for a kid's piano lesson, a few dollars for sheet music will be nothing.

I'm really looking forward to this!
