The music really is all that matters to me. What do I care if a band has 100 or 100 million fans, has a 747 or not or whether they topped whatever lists at some point in time. So if the "greatest" doesn't mean "makes good music" then whatever, they're totally super great. That's cool, but why should I be impressed by that? Nickelback also makes a lot of money. So does Bruno Mars. And Maroon 5.
If Maroon 5 grows to be even bigger than Zep (imagined scenario, stay with me), influences thousands of other bands and own 3 Boeings and a cruise ship, does Zep have to hand over the "greatest band ever" trophy?
