We may not agree on a lot of things, but pop stars "making atrociously
bad music" I agree with enthusiastically. (-:

As with pop music, one man's quality is another man's atrocity. But, I
cannot think of any situation in which one person ought to dictate to
another what is and what is not quality other than to those who commit
biological crimes that undermine society, like bomb murderers. A free
market system assures that potential dictators will be held at bay. That
alone makes it worthy of support don't you think?.
