[This topic's been split from the Alton Towers Live topic so some posts might not be entirely cogent... To discuss that event go here! - MagGAGrathea]
Without wishing to derail this thread from it's original discussion point of the concert, it isn't far-fetched to call it music 'snobbery' - considering that is what your post generally is TheMan... I know that processed pop isn't necessarily 'music' in the truest form. People accept music in a 'true' sense to be totally created and written and performed by the same people.
Just because it has come from the X Factor does not stop it being music. It might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it is still music after all...
Equally, I don't mean to come across attacking to you or anything, it's more of a general point in terms of musical opinions. Yes, it might be mass-market music and it might not appeal to everyone, but just because someone takes the view that processed pop is bad and talentless doesn't mean it actually is, and nor does it stop it from being real music.
