I think you chaps take all this far too seriously. I've mentioned before the inverted snobbery in what is after all 'pop' music. This seems worse now than it was back in the 60s. Rock music was originally intended for entertainment & dancing, just like what is commonly called classical music these days. It's all pop or popular music as that's what it was intended to be.
I've always had a very broad taste in music & being prepared to listen to new things increases the range even more. I don't like these little boxes people seem so fond of. If someone decides it's Country & I like it so what? I couldn't care less what anyone else thinks. Just because I enjoy Status Quo doesn't mean that I listen to them all the time or prevent me from enjoying many other types of music that might be completely different. I hope you will learn to do the same. I dont know what I would do without music in some form or another.
