I don't think it's all that unusual amongst marketing theory, which by 'demographic aesthetics' I mean the aesthetic preferences that contextualizes a target demographic as a pop cultural force (which, of course, is always too general to be correct but general enough to market). But I don't know anything about marketing so this is more or less a guess.

Your first paragraph was a valid reply to what I was arguing. I suppose I'm not surprised by such negative reactions because I figure discussion of popular music naturally entails a lot of hypocrisy and digressive reasoning. I don't even think this is the result of capitalism nor democracy as much as from being intersubjectivity with little to no possibility for verifiability.
