I went through a Who phase but I really don't care for them much anymore. I guess it started after watching a Pete Townshend interveiw. Anyway if I had to sum up those bands in a word or phrase:

The Beatles = Infatuation
The Who = Megalomania
The Rolling Stones = The bee's knees, the cat's pajamas, the greatest thing since sliced bread, the coolest band in Rock and Roll history.

My friend who a was a record store owner was telling me the difference between a Beatle fans and a Stones fans. One of the thing he said was that he never came across a used Stones record that was in good condition, they (LPs) were always worn out and scatched up. He said either the Stones fans didn't know how to take care of their records or played the **** out of them. He also said he saw many Beatles LPs and it wasn't unusal that they were in mint or near mint condish.

Hi.
I saw a documentary/movie on Lemmy Kilminister some time ago.
He said he was an huge Beatles fan and the interviewer was very surprised because he would bet that a tough guy like Lemmy would have surely been a Stones fan.
Lemmy answered: Despite the look, the Beatles were true rockers that came from the working class and played in some of the most dangeorus clubs in Europe, while the Stones were middle class "sissies" - he excactly used the word sissies - who pretend to be tough guys from the workin class but were not.
Not mine words, Lemmy words.

People are allowed to like The Beatles, it's not a crime to love their music and their story. If the Beatles were as much of a fad as you are letting on, their music wouldn't have stood the test of time and would not be popular today.

I don't know where I said the Fab Four were just a fad.

I like The Beatles as much as the next guy, probably more than most people here. It depends some can talk up The Beatles and it doesn't bother me even if it's that The Bealtes better than anything else in the Universe. I don't mind people praising The Beatles as long as they don't throw the bands & artists I like under the bus to prove their pov.

When I said The Beatles = Infatuation, it was really from something someone else said about The Beatles, - paraphrasing again - that their songs was about that walking on clouds kind of feeling that first love brings. They had songs like I Want To Hold Your Hand and I've Just Seen a Face etc. I went in and out of phases with The Beatles and The Who but I've always been a Rolling Stones fan.

Yeah, when a band or an artist becomes one of your first favorites, they stick and stay there very long. I am not a metalhead, but Metallica are in my Top 3 artists of all time, because they opened my eyes for the good music and I simply love them. But The Who just can't be as great as the Stones or the Beatles. They are the third greatest band of the 60s, though.

I am absolutely agree about the Stones, but why is that hate towards The Beatles?

That's a very limited view, as you just picked probably the three biggest and said they're the best.
