Do I have a bad taste in music, or am I more "musically-inclined" than most?
The only way I think to work out the good from the average is to listen to a lot from a particular genre, then you probably can tell which things are more generic and which are more creative. As for lines between genres it's just a matter of convenience for me in exploring music, ultimately music is simply music. In fact my album collection isn't categorised by genres it's ordered chronologically.
