You go from 60s-80s, almost 3 decades of classic music, to boy bands, shitty rappers, hot women who have nothing to contribute but a good voice, etc. Put American Idol on in the 80's and it would flop. Music today is a joke and it's been dead for 10+ years.

I agree American Idol is a lame show, but you'd eather the youth be purely influenced by MTV musically?
Ironically, American Idol is the only mainstream outlet exposing this generation to music from great past artists (from when music was real).
Otherwise, these kids would never even know these past artists even EXIST.
