Okay, but you know that "good" and "worse" and subjective, relative terms? Just because you have your own reasons for something doesn't make them "objective", you just don't like modern pop music.

Ok, so since it is all "subjective" then you have to concede that a song which is just 1 hour of a single note being played is equally good.

Or maybe, instead of devolving into absurdity we can just say that there are come qualities of being better or worse that most people can agree on.

Of course, you can simply bite the bullet and say "yep. The song with 1 note in it is subjectively just as good".

Maybe, but enough people like modern day pop music, so by that criteria it is good.
