If you have then you obviously study the charts more than me. Im sure there have been cases with tracks like "fire" and "the anthem" which were never trance tunes in the first place. They are just songs dressed up to bastardise trance.

I would say that the same type of trance that was on charts a few years ago is even more cheesy today. You wouldn't agree?
Take any tune of A&B for example and compare it to Gouryella. Sure as hell they sound more cheesier and "radiofriendly".
And what in your definition is a "proper trance tune"?
And the time factor doesn't matter. I am still wondering that all the large amount of trance tracks which was on radio a few years ago was that pop or trance? Because surely people even today would recognice them as trance if they heard it.

Yes, trance like Tiesto, Ferry & co can be considered like pop today, but trance is not only limited to these guys. And it’s still better that all theses techno / minimal boring shit tune that is the future (or present ?) of pop in EDM.

My thoughts exactly. It seems everyone is arguing these extreme points, however stupid, just for the sake of arguing, with a lot of fallacies as a result.
