Why do people hate mainstream?

[andrat]

I actually liked Dane Cook a few years ago, and still think some of his material is funny.
I think that most people stop liking things once they hit mainstream is that once it finally does, they're already tired of it.
I still haven't stopped liking Halo though.
Went to EB in the morning, first person in my town to play it ^.^
ALSO
Has NO ONE mentioned the Jonas Brothers yet?
That's reason enough to hate mainstream music as it is

Because hating popular things is the new in thing.

Well music is completely different to the other things on the list.

To be popular music you MUST be with what's in, that means changing your sound and image to get maximum profit. This antagonises the fans as it cheapens their feel and makes the fan feel unwanted.

With other media it's the use of it from different people. Overusing phrases in a comedy sketch show for example makes it age faster and outdated.

I think people start to feel unimportant if they like something that everyone else does. I dont hate mainstream stuff, so that's just a guess

 

[The Eaten Cake]

The word "original" rarely applies to anything mainstream, and when it does, it is usually paired with the word "not".

To my knowledge, anyway. Which is based on Halo and most of what Radio 1 play.
