Pop as in mainstream was never a dirty word.

We, the people, dictate what is mainstream and what isn't. That's why it boggles my mind when people denounce mainstream music on the grounds of it being mainstream, because it is what we make it.

In 10 years it could be death metal, who knows? I mean, I know it's unlikely but what will those people do if that happens?

I'll admit that I'm not a big fan of what's mainstream these days, but I won't deny that there's some great stuff being in there as well. It's not like there isn't absolute bull**** in the underground.
