For me it's pop music. Still love rock & metal but I stopped being a pathetic elitist and began to enjoy music for what it was.

Now I'll listen to anything from Dua Lipa to Darkthrone.

Only thing that is annoying about pop music, radio stations here play the same 10 songs several times per day. Every day.

“Music” could be on this list for me.

I don’t know where you found anything different from radio stations playing a few songs over and over, between almost constant blather, but this is why I never liked music.

At one phase I started to like music as I could buy what I wanted, but it was turning into an expensive habit to have any choice. Then the industry changed format and obsoleted my library.

It was a revelation when we got good music streaming services (and I could afford them) and I listen to so much more music now, from many genres and eras. I love music.

….. well, we’ll see as services turn more hostile to their customers

I have come to like more pop music over time too. What I found though is that I don't tend to attach much to music unless it has something unique to it, so have found myself going for bands like Pixie Paris which is very poppy but still a bit different.

Aah, so still being a bit elitist ;)
