Um.. you're getting a little surreal for me here.. I didn't say anything about a 'form' of music much less a mythical form of music. You're obviously too caught up in the genre to understand what I meant by good and bad music. If you are one of these people that thinks just because some untalented hack that can afford a Kurzweil and a drum machine rips an mp3 of his "work" consisting of 10 minutes of improvised nonsense with no structure, theme, or direction, then I guess you'll never understand the point I was trying to make. I don't claim to be some kind of music scholar, but I know slop when I hear it. By the way this has nothing to do with Klunko, I haven't heard the stuff yet, I'm downloading the first song on the page as I type this.

Gee, if I apply that logic to any other group of people, it's probably considered racism, homophobia, nationalism, or chauvinism. Unless you personally spoke to each user of AOL, maybe you should keep your 'stats' to yourself or you could possibly come off as an elitist bigot.
