As a result, and being myself a professional musician, I've always being sad at how often good criteria for choosing what music to listen to normally escapes to non musicians. Professional musicians' customary silence and lack of denounce of this situation has probably also helped this situation. Few other art disciplines (if any) suffer from this insane distance between real professionals' criteria and the general public. Think of architecture, medicine or even culinary matters: in all these fields opinions from experts and general public are not normally so dramatically far apart as in music. Maybe literature is a slightly similar case if we think of best-sellers. Is it that the more popular an art the more 'infected' by uninformed opinions? I really hope the internet helps real musicians change this ridiculous situation. Music, and real musicians, need & deserve it.

The music industry is rotten all the way to the core and they will never ever change. Don’t get me wrong, I agree with you 100%, but do you really think you are going to win this fight?
