Could you expand a bit on the challenges with Skype/Zoom?

Piano tutors who want to give an engaging remote lesson will want the ability to show themselves playing as well as what notes they're playing. This requires expensive equipment and technical knowledge to set up using Skype/Zoom. I give a few typical setups on the landing page and compare it to Keyboard Connect, which requires just a MIDI controller and webcam.

This represents a challenge for tutors and could be discouraging for new pianists who just want to try lessons without committing to buying a digital/acoustic piano are supporting AV equipment.

Also, I'll add modules to Keyboard Connect that support tasks tutors/students would normally have to organize on their own (lesson planning, file sharing, practice tools)
