Bro, you just hit the spot.

For recording purposes, using a POD, or something similar, is just so much easier than trying to mic a real amp, and the tones usually tend to be better (unless you have access to a decent recording studio and/or the knowledge of how to properly mic and mix an amp [which most people don't]).

Power corrupts. Absolute power is kinda neat.
