True enough, but it doesn't necessarily have to be prefaced with 
"sad as it may seem".  Do you read Sartre or Enid Bleyton every 
day?  I think that different forms of music accompany different 
stages of our lives, rightly or wrongly we are free to enjoy whatever 
moves us.  And this may even change from day to day.  

I might get off on Steve Stoll at mega volume today and want 
nothing but n-tone ambience tomorrow.  And I might even - oh 
horror - go to an 80's theme party in hotpants with knee-high 
leather boots and dance until 3 having a whale of a time (did that 
last month).

To hell with musical snobbery!
