The answer should be B.
A. as much from the time of makes the sentence wordy and awkward "as much from the time of advent of"
B. as much since.
C. as much as. Incorrect comparison
D. much as after. This indicates that the ping-ponging has been used more often after the advent of computer-based recording.
E. much because of. Alters the meaning.
OA please.

In choice D, I dont agree the meaning that the ping-ponging has been used more often after the advent of computer-based recording because the sentence would be:

IMO it should be "B" as this is referring to time , for "E" the modified sentence will change its meaning.
