Cue Scoble tears. This is one hell of a technology from Microsoft Research that I think will have a huge impact on how amateurs and hobbyists write music. The technology and software prototype is called MySong.
In a nutshell, the software records your singing (preferably in tune) through a microphone, and it systematically generates an instrumental accompaniment for your song. The quality is even comparable with a professional accompanist, not to mention the cost and time involved.
If you don’t believe me, have a look at this quick 5-minute demo with loads of practical examples.

It's a funny video and interesting project, but sorry... it's not even remotely comparable to a professional accompanist.

The generic piano sounds like the Cheers tv show music.
