I'm embarrassed to say that I couldn't decide. But I think the key may be in the string pizzicato, or perhaps the tuning of the woodwinds to pure equal temperament instead of tuning each chord.

I got it on the first try, because I thought it had the pure temperament problem you mention above, and also the subtle but relentless regularity of the tempo... Not a dead giveaway, however, and I was pleased, but also a bit surprised, that I got it on the first pass. Like some of you, all the years of working with MIDI and sequencing and samples probably helped. Still, it's a pretty darn good fake.

The article, by the way is mostly crap, and longer than it needs to be to make any of the valid points. But "spot the fake" was well worth a few minutes of R and R, when I should be meeting a deadline.
