BlueKSkyJaunte: I would have agreed with you about a year ago, but (gasp) it seems like new (ROCK) music is actually getting better. Maybe case-in-point - my local "new rock" station, which was a DJ-free upstart in the glory days of Nirvana (man those were the days), recently slightly altered their programming.
They still play a lot of new rock, but about half of their song schedule are alt-rock hits from the 1990s! Nirvana, STP, Pearl Jam, and Oasis to Meatpuppets, Elastica, Veruca Salt, Nada Surf, and Butthole Surfers...
...anyhow (and here's my point) most of the new music that they still play is actually pretty damned good! Audioslave, Queens of the Stone Age, Foo Fighters, Radiohead, White Stripes, Red Hot Chili Peppers, etc. They still play absolute crap like Linkin Park and Staind and Creed and Third Eye Blind, but it is heavily outweighed by the quality new stuff and the old 90s faves!
