Taste isn't objective. I don't think anyone here would argue against that, however, you have to admit that subjectivity is boring.

So I look at music as being relative. For instance, while my taste may not be objectively better than a 15 year old Linkin Park fan's, I have had more experience as a whole with music, and thus have a better idea of what I like in music than the 15 year old pop punk fan. This does not "prove" any of my opinions, but it does give them weight.
