When it comes to music with my friends, I shut up and let them listen to their little pop bs. I find you can subtly motivate them into listening to better music than to make waves about their ignorance to anything out of the rock radio station. Its an added bonus I can ignore any sound when I feel like it

I agree that when it comes to music I'm fine with whatever my friends listen to. I always try to subtly suggest something that I like to them, and it works better than raving about their stupidity.

I've been known to bash my friends taste in music, but it;s kind of hard not to when someone says Iron & Wine suck then continue to listen to bands like Suicide Silence. I DO know more about music then my friends, but they see that as an advantage as i am always burning people cds.

Edit: That might've sounded pretty arrogant. I didn't mean for it to.

I definitely don't need validation when it comes to my musical tastes. But I can look retrospectively and see that I did when I was a little shit.




Edit:
Recommendations, OTOH, are nice. It's like someone letting you know there's a discount on 12-packs of your favorite beer over at the local 7-11.
So true.

Yeah, I've been struggling with this with my poor girlfriend. I never say directly what she likes is shit... I just hated the Jonas Brothers. I guess sometimes it's just hard to accept that music is music, and that no music is really better then other music, it's just different. Honestly, it took a really long time, but I've recently come to the conclusion bands like Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, and The Jonas Brothers are just the music of 2000-2010, and that maybe it's natural for us to get bubblegum rock again after so many decades of intense cultural/musical movements. As far as the media being the driving factor in this, well, the media is just part of the culture in the 2000's, and as usual, music got swept-up in it.

Relationships shouldn't be based on music preference, though, which apparently yours' is not. Good job on that.
