And had the SOPA bill passed in the USA, you could have gotten povray.org shut
down as well. Have THAT on your conscience!
Luckily, YouTube would have been just as vulnerable as POV-Ray, so The Google,
among others, expressed their deep displeasure with Congress over this.

Yeah... Really, it ought to be the people who uploaded this who get
sued. Except that you could employ entire teams of people just to spend
their days going through the mass of illegal stuff and taking it down.
Users can post this stuff far faster than any court can deal with it.

Yes. Out of the tens of thousands of songs written, several hundred are good
enough people are still listening to them. You think people won't be
listening to, say, the Beatles in 100 years?

Don't forget music from movies and video games. Imperial March can certainly
live on, as might the Wicked Witch theme, for example.

For the same reason that lots of people have hated every over-promoted
mediocrity. Many people perceive it as an attempt to mold their
thinking, which people resent when it takes an apparently overt form,
and for some it has grown into a simmering resentment, which results in
a knee-jerk display of hostility at any evidence that he ever existed.
The phenomenon is not limited to Justin Bieber or to popular
entertainment. There are a lot of things whose mere mention (even here)
will provoke a rant of multiple paragraphs.
Regards,
John

Freddie Mercury had a real show with the Queen group, with a bit of
emotions and messages to share with the listener/viewer/...
And talent.

What has JB ? short of a youth and some mega-corporations trying to push
him ?
Anyone remember the young kid Macaulay Culkin ? He was wise enough to
make a pause.

As for that, how exactly do you define mediocrity (when talking about a
singer/musician)? How do you measure mediocrity?
If such an artist is very popular and sells well, how can you say he/she is
mediocre? What's the justification?
Or is it just a question of "he/she is mediocre because I personally don't
like his/her music"?
