Gotta love the answers here. So informed.
Basically, these acts are cross-marketed towards children and teenagers, and the music is made to appeal to their age groups. Believe it or not, whether these acts exist or not, children are not going to listen to the same indy rock scene the majority of you listen to. That doesn't make them stupid either. They're just young. My three year old listens to "The Wheels On The Bus Go Round and Round". She doesn't care for Arctic Monkeys. Go figure. It doesn't make her stupid, it doesn't mean she has no taste, she's not an idiot, she just happens to listen to music created to appeal to her age group. Now she's getting into Miranda Cosgrove a bit through iCarly. This is the way you get children interested. Maybe Radiohead should put a sticom out on Nickelodeon.
