He makes one point about a technique that has been used for years before digital audio: copying and pasting parts around. Even back in the analog days, they could get one good take of a section (say, the chorus) and the "fly it in" to repeat it in another spot. Digital just makes it easier.
You don't have to quantize to copy/paste digitally, either. I do it all the time. So I'm not sure that part of his argument holds.
