And I agree with you about people trying to invalidate music they don't like by saying it's not music. It's kind of a weird phenomenon, similar to the "that's not art" accusation. Strangely you never really hear people describe movies they like as not being movies or books they don't like as not being books.
Never thought about that books and movies thing. Interesting observation.
Perhaps the reason is, that "book" is tied to the physical (or lately also digital) object and movies to the act of filming, while music and art can't be that easily tied to anything.
