Because I can't imagine a single reason to make the music more mainstream. This would mean more idiots who listen to it and infinitely more trash and epic, epic, EPIC trance.

More idiots listening to it doesn't mean everyone who's listening to it now suddenly becomes an idiot. I don't see what's wrong with that. Look at rock and rap - they're the most mainstream thing right now, the chart-topping tunes are full of crap, but if you scratch the surface there's alot of good stuff going on, and one thing's for sure: Their artists aren't all starving, and the genre isn't slowly crawling to it's death. Having trance become more mainstream will bring new people to it, and that's just what it needs to stay healthy.

On the other hand, if you fade it away from the spotlight and make it an underground thing again, how will you attract new people to it? Alot of people who listened to trance years ago have since moved on to other genres like house, techno or prog. If you don't keep attracting new people, the genre will die.

You consider the popularity of trance to be a "serious matter?"

Don't slam epic. Above and Beyond.... I have no need to say more to make you look foolish for bashing such a wave of music. You incredulous tart of a man.

I'm not saying epic is bad, it just mostly sucks.
