In my opinion the problem would be coming up with measurable criteria
   for "sounds the same".
   Best, and keep playing (wherever you think it came from),

        certainly -much- pop music sounds the same, no?

        Ooh, easy one:
        You're both wrong.   You're both making sweeping categorical
     statements
        based on insufficient information.   You, Ph.D., in particular,
     should
        know better than to characterize "all pop music" without first
        listening to all pop music.
