I think people give older bands more credit than they deserve because of the fact they influenced tons of people, which is one of the reasons i made this thread in the first place.

And i still can't see why the beatles are so great, besides their influence on the whole world, lol
I don't really like the Beatles either so I can relate to that. But you have to understand that dismissing music just because it's older than you is dismissing most music. Why would you want to have such a narrow focus? And what are you going to do in 15-20 years when the bands you like now are all old? Are you going to suddenly start thinking they suck?
