I don’t think this is a constructive line of thinking.

Popular music by definition is popular because… well a lot of people like it.

And so they make services/devices catering to that large population of people.

Just because people like things that are mainstream doesn’t make them boring

> Popular music by definition is popular because… well a lot of people like it.

And a lot of people "like it" because it is pushed aggresively by the record companies. A lot of the so called "Popular music" is garbage you won't hear of after a couple of years.

It’s mostly lowest common denominator music.

You're right, I could have said that better. But you know what? Fuck those idiots sucking down that mainstream trash, happy to be exploited by Google, Amazon, Spotify, and Apple. Fuck those fucking stupid fucks
