I disagree archer. There are as many Metal-heads and punks out there as there are pop music listeners, in fact I would say that in reality pop music is in the minority, while the counter culture music and sub-genres COMBINED are in the majority, yet when each genre is taken out of the fold it is less significant. An example of this is the fact that 2 years ago Andy Griffith, yes that's right ANDY GRIFFITH, Matlock himself, broke into the top 100. That means that alot of people listened to him, just not as many as listened to NSYNC or BSB. And when you combine Andy Griffith with all the other top 100 albums, excluding the top ten, they greatly outnumber the remaing ten. And lets not forget, pop musics fan base is the 13 to 19 yr old population, thats the segment of people who have money, yet have no bills to pay, so they can afford every stupid album that comes out. And lest you forget, there is some actual saving grace to some pop. Check out my sig if you wanna know what I mean.
