Are the "hit" songs bad and annoying or am I getting old?

Yes, there is. And, in every previous generation, there was a lot of something else. Whether it was autotune instead of singing, computers instead of bands, electric synthesisers instead of pianos, drum machines instead of drums, electric guitars instead of guitars, big bands instead of orchestras, everyone has had something to complain about concerning the 'music of this crappy generation' down through the decades. Hell, it was happening long before modern music. Just look into how what we refer to as classical music took its shape (the pop of its era for many). Later, what we see as crappy, modern nonsense will turn to the classics of tomorrow; or, the best examples, at least. I mean, really, who doesn't love a good bit of 80s' synthpop? That's when music was real, man! They didn't need real instruments! ... uh oh...

No, this isn't the same |:

How many pepole today still listem to Elvis? or 50's-60's Blues? The Beatles? Pimk Floyd? Led Zeppelin? Deep Purple? Eric Clapton? Yes? Genesis? Rush? Iron Maiden? Metallica? Guns N' Roses? Nirvana? Queen? Tupac?

A LOT.

How many pepole still listen to N-Sync? or The Backstreet Boys? Bands who's success, for their time, was as big, if not bigger, than most of the bands stated above?

Not that many...

This is probably the generation with the most young pepole who despise the way music looks today.

Boy bands typically are forgotten after a while. Does anyone today still listen to The Jackson 5?
