A lot of rock music is basically love songs too. And all music is made with an intent to be sold. And although you say what people call pop nowadays (big label chart music) is aimed at the masses the truth is many people of all ages don't like it too. And there is much pop that isn't well known and so can't sell as much as it doesn't get the same exposure.
