I agree. People will tell you they have objective ways of proving the quality of music, it's emotional reactionary BS. It's an art that moves with culture and technology; the length of the song, the instruments, complexity - people are going to make what they feel and listen to what they like (and there will always be people making some version of something even if it's not popular - one of my friends is committed to metrical verse). With so many people making music (and art in general) now, writing off a generation's output based on what sold or showed up in commercial media is short sighted. "Music" is so much more than what's irritating the taste-keepers.
