Well I think it would be very hard to confirm what people knew or didn't know. How do you know they haven't come to this opinion on their own, rather than copied someone else? I talk to people seldom if ever about music (other than here) and most times all anyone would say is "I like such a song by that artist" and leave it at that. I've never got into deep discussions with people I don't know (again, other than online) about music, so no, I couldn't say that I agree with you. In fact, I don't see how you can make the assumption they don't know what they're talking about unless you go through their music collection or something?
