I think what is even more interesting, is that while there is a large amount of people that are pop-fanatics, there is probably an equally large number who are anti-pop-fanatics. Both groups are ironically driven by the pop culture machine, just in different directions.
I, on the other hand, like what I like, and dislike what I dislike. Whether or not something is on MTV or not doesn't really have a bearing on whether or not I like it. At least, not as far as I know.
