I think that there is no keyboardist on this planet that could break kC keys by playing. Investing in kC is investing in quality. One kC comes cheaper than one C and four broken cheap controllers. It's a known fact that cheap isn't cheap on a long run. Cheap stuff tend to break down from time to time. There one thing that you shouldn't get cheap and that's a keyboard. Keyboard is the part of your setup that gets all the stress and if the keyboard is a crancky piece of plastic it won't last. So get kC or a C with
good controller. It won't get cheap now, but it will be cheap in the future.
Edit: And don't forget that cheap controllers are awful to play. The touch is just crap. All the time you have to be afraid that you press too hard and break something. Like my Alesis QS7 had extremely bad keyboard. It was really cheap. When you played it you could hear cracking sounds and it's really not a suprise that after a year one key broke down. On the other hand my Virus kB was very solid and getting out cracking sounds from the keys would have required a large hammer. So I'd advice to invest in quality. It really comes cheaper in the end and it's more enjoyable to play.
