A well thought out, cogent argument. I'm not going to bother rebutting any of that. You certainly know your stuff mate. Nice work

Mainstream Music, Regressed.
Music as a whole, Progressed.

The latter being due too access of lesser known artists due to the internet.

Nicely done indeed and pretty much spot on as far my knowledge is concerned.
Mainstream music has gone down somewhat. When hearing music of the old times(currently I find myself fascinated by old blues), I often consider them to better,however there are still a lot of good musicians today, tho they are quite hard to find due to the ''more popular stuff'' being shoved everywhere.

All in all agreed with this dude.
