well, its to do with conforming and also some people make judge their own opinions on what others like.... maybe? also, pop music is easily accessible in the media and shops. |

because there is always a chance, even if it's a tiny chance... ...or (and that's more satisfying for me) because 'right' and 'wrong' are subjective concepts. the same thing can be right for some people and wrong for some other people. |

thanks to the behavior of mimicry that evolved in us primates, billions of people can indeed be wrong. |

I searched for "called it pop because" or something in the exact phrase section of google. (and put "soda" as another key word) http://www.foodreference.com/html/fpop.html ta da! |

what is right is not always popular what is popular is not always right |

billions of people can be wrong . . . and are wrong. |

Its just like candy. Everyone knows chocolate and likes chocolate, just because it has this nice balanced taste, powerfull and sweet, just a simple but tasty type of candy. Like with music, POP is just the easy and tasty musical snack. Consider non-pop more like a delicacy. and tastes do differ... |

isnt it a sophism? of course the fact that everyone thinks something doesnt make it right. the whole world once thought the earth was flat, that it was the center of the universe, the the gods made the rain, and so on. |

Most of the "pop" music you hear today follows a formula, a formula that has been tried and tested to make a song catchy and memorable. Many People who listen to top 40 stations like the songs because they keep hearing them over and over. They're catchy. That doesn't neceissarily mean they're good, however. |
