Subj; The never-ending argument I've made several attempts to throw some water on this heated (and silly) 'classical' vs. 'pop' argument. No one seems to address the points I've brought up. I'll try one more time - Thought experiment - Suppose I came up with the ultimate argument which showed that either 'classical' or 'pop' was superior in some way to the other. It left you speechless. After weeks of thinking about a rebuttal, you had to admit that my argument was valid. Would you then stop listening to the music you like/love? Is it it's superiority that you like? Striped of that, does it sound any different? The winner of this argument wins nothing. - Karl
