It's probably - again, to echo Neapolitan - the fans more than anything else. To listen to some of them you'd think music could not have/never existed without the Beatles. It's like they're the Second Coming or something. I mean, let's be honest: they were a pretty average rock band who just managed to come to the public notice at a time when their kind of music was becoming wildly popular, and they rode that for years. Listen to them now, how different are they?
The worst though are the youngsters, the ones only discovering the Beatles now and going around as if they personally have discovered them and now everything else sucks.
