Why does it matter? (tickets, country, house, metal, albums)

Why does it matter so much to so many people whether a band gets popular. Like suddenly they're not very good because other people like them...Is it not about the music they make rather than how "sold out" there show was etc etc, like if lots of other people like them doesn't that mean they're good? I don't understand. Why suddenly change what you listen to, because you want to be different or something?? Like loads of people change to be different form everyone else, when al thouse people are just being the same as each other, thus like everyone else...Why does it matter so much to be so "different" or individual. Can't you be yourself like what you like and if lots of other people like it...who cares

The only difference I can think of that affects me in any way is that generally when bands I like become more popular, they charge more for tickets, and they play bigger venues where the view and the sound are nowhere near as good. I'd never stop loving a band simply because of that reason though, I think anyone that does has some pretty serious problems they need to address really.
