> Lets be honest -- techno, trance, electro, progressive etc. it's all ultimately pretty much the same thing.

Electro sounds nothing like trance, even if you know little about electronic music. Compare Kraftwerk with Tiesto or ATB for example to see what I mean. You may need to listen to trance for a while to be able to distinguish between, say, Goa and Psychedelic, but saying that all genres of electronic music are ultimately the same thing comes across as ignorant. (I understand that any electronic music sounds like noise to some people, but it's a genre as rich and diverse as any other.)

Here's a nice electronic music guide with loots of samples for anyone interested in hearing the differences between the many sub genres.
