mr. eraserhead, i think you're better off riffing off on something like Motown in the 60s if you want to talk about neatly packaged consumerism - none of the acts wrote their own stuff, besides early stuff like Barrett Strong, it was made for the tennybopper market, and is dumbed-down soul and r n' b - i garner that they were the main culrits responsible for pop music being marketed in such a manner as of today

to rub salt into the wound, early Beatles took a lot from Motown as well

(a similar case can be made for Tin Pan Alley, but they were at least trained songsmiths)
