Well the Detroit techno movement validated them for a new generation, you 
have to condede that. Half these kids into them are too young to have been
around when Kraftwerk were releasing records in the 80s. I am only surprised

and heard stories to support that assumption. I think production costs would
be a factor. As I said, I don't know the story so it's speculative anyway.
