I've heard Beethoven's 6th and Ponytails' Born Too Late, and I know
which I have on my MP3 playlists. (I hear the voices of the microtonists
and other music geeks calling from my exile from the list right now.)
But I regard that as personal choice, not a statement on quality.
Likewise, I prefer huge alien landscapes, dramatic heroes and world
changing decisions to personal growth plots, but that's personal choice,
not a statement on quality.
