    Why is today's pop music so terrible?

    Why is today's pop music so terrible?

    Why is today's pop music so terrible?

    Sooooooooooooooooo many great ways to source new music today. I love the "what are you listening to threads" and I have several streaming services where I am all over the new releases. Just a great time to be a music lover.

    Real Names and Real Photos are Fun!

    This is, sadly, rare in this hobby. Frankly, I think the anonymity of the internet, or seeming anonymity, is the real problem. A shame it evolved as such.

    Why is today's pop music so terrible?

    You think that objective and definitive? how do I say this nicely.... hog wash. I won't ever get into the self serving criteria used for the "study" but I could do an "objective" study (by those standards) to get any outcome I wanted. I don't have the time, energy or desire but I could pull...

    What's Spinning Tonight?

    For me, Blonde on Blonde is one of the 5 greastest lp's ever released. But he did so much great work from 1963 to 1975, any one album can be held in the highest of esteem.

    What are you currently listening to (Classical)?

    nothing is black or white everything is a shade of grey for example, my genuine belief about music is that there is good music and there is great music, there is no bad music. so, I may listen to something that I would not recommend. My postings are not recommendations, they are a...

    What are you currently listening to (Classical)?

    I am pretty sure this is pointed at me so'll reply. It's about sharing. No different than you sharing your audio gear in the signature. I could get more into the psychology of this but you'd get bored quick. I have always found the listening threads the most enjoyable at audio sites and...
