It's not. It's only okay to like artists that are much farther underground, like Dubfire. |

Also, thanks heaps to the surprising number of people who've taken this seriously. Been entertaining to read a lot of the posts in here.

And anyone who thinks it's "not OK" to like an artist or musician strikes me as so insecure in their own tastes that it's a problem.
If someone else not liking something offends you, you really need a lobotomy. |

Yeah but it's not even ok to like Dubfire anymore. Why? Where is this line that keeps getting drawn and separating what is ok to like and what is not ok to like?
Clovis, obviously people enjoy what Tiesto does and the show he puts on. What makes them wrong for having a good time and Tiesto for providing them a good time? |

I meant generally, not for the handful that rise to the top. ;) |
I would think you could still reach financial freedom even with residential status or some semi-successful releases , no? I'm just talking out of my ass, but I would think so.
But I would also think some these guys NOT on the top you speak of; they do it for the love of music and the pleasure it gives them. You should know that. |

A lot of people enjoy what Tiesto has made or currently makes. They sell like hot cakes! |

Trancecrackers have their opinion and minimal hipsters have theirs. I think the problem you're having is separating discussions of general opinion with your own insecurities in regards to your own taste. |

Because half of those people don't know what else is out there. Simple as that. They just buy whatever it's fed to them. |

Do you have a wikipedia link to back up your claim? |

It doesn't make them wrong at all. I just think they have really bad taste in music, and do not at all have the same relationship with electronic music as I do. |
