I disagree. Most mainstream music is utter shite, and always has been. Have a look through the charts from when they started back in the 50s. Look at all the number 1s. A lot of them are absolute crap, and stuff that you've probably not heard of. Young people go on about the 60s and 70s having all of this great music, which it did, but most of that stuff was never in the charts.
Basically what I'm saying is you have to go looking for good music. Sometimes good stuff pops up in the charts, but most of the time it's the shit that gets played. The shit you hear on the popular radio stations today is no worse than the shit they were playing 50 years ago.
IIN That I think today's music will be totally forgotten in the future?
