Fully agreed. But already albums are recorded using only or mostly
digital modelling. The guitarist of the Dutch band Silkstone
(http://www.fransvanessen.nl/) used NI Guitar Rig to record most of his
parts on their latest album if I have to believe the interviews ;) And
they did well in the Dutch hit charts.

Best,
