No, it's not.

You do not see a difference between "the earth is round" and "apples are the greatest fruit"?

The reasone why there is no "objective" greatest band ever is because there are no definitive criteria to judge music as a whole by (thank god for that). If you think the beatles are indeed the best, fine, but dont think for a second that the reasons for which youve come up with that conclusion are anything but subjective.

Oh and before this gets brought up, and im sure it will: Record sales are objective. Record sales correlating to greatness is not.
