OK. Fine with me. "Your music sucks" is a totally dead end and I'm not going there.
What I will say is, arts do not advance linearly, more or less, like science does. You can't say that drama has "advanced" since Shakespeare -- it's just changed. So "what's popular?" is not a shorthand for "what's good?"
