Don't assume I mean anything bad, disrespectful, etc, with the "blah blah blah" comment, because I don't. Might I add, that if I wanted to imply that what you say has no value, I'd actually say it outright. I don't like beating around the bush nor am I too good with subtleties. While I have a drastically (fistfight worthy) different opinions than yours (music and otherwise), and all that jazz, I think I can do better than something like that if I really wanted to say your opinion has no value. PLUS, I'd know better than to drag it into a thread that has ALREADY derailed spectacularly.
I'm sorry, where I come from replacing someone else's words with "blah, blah" is quite an insult.
I'm sorry if I misinterpreted what you wrote.

In case you misunderstood what I wrote, in turn, I have no problem with people having different conceptions of what is good in music.

As for "fistfight worthy", well, I don't believe anything is worthy of that. Violence, or the threat there of, is rarely a worthwhile option for resolving differences of opinion... particularly when they're nothing more than differences in taste and personal preference.

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.
