It's probably no surprise that I don't enjoy "popular" or "Top 40" music. It's corporate, bland, overplayed, unoriginal, boring, bland, and boring, It's also dumb.

Yes, the point of this exactly.

Nickelback and their label are businessmen if you want to think about it that way, they're just giving people a product they know and like, if it ain't broke (i.e. if for whatever reason I can't understand, they still want to hear the same shit) why fix it (i.e. why risk doing something different when they're still getting success).

It's really not that different to a factory making sausages. Most people enjoy eating sausages, so the sausage factory owner makes good old sausages because that's what the people want and are going to buy. Of course it's a completely different market we're talking about, but it's the same principal.

People want money though, and there's money to be made in giving people what they want, that's what keeps the cycle going.

Am I making sense or just talking crap?

And Radagast seems to be the only other one pointing out that trance has the same structural similarities within itself.
