Yes, there is a VAST misconception that just because it is made electronically, it takes "no talent". While in some cases, that is certainly true, it is not always that way. The talent isn't just in the instruments played by "hand". There is also talent in composition, and just because different tools are used for the output, it doesn't mean that the musicians behind it lack talent. They are just using different mediums.
Personally, a careful marriage of conventional instruments and electronica is what I prefer.
