This argument always generates more articles than the newsgroup would seem to have. Oh, and of course it brings out that cultural snobbery of "Oh, dear, we couldn't POSSIBLY post articles about OUR kind of music in that icky, rock-filled net.music." Why not? net.music is `filled' with articles about Rock and Punk by default, because YOU (yes, you, right there behind the asparagus fern) didn't bother to post any about music you like. Well, it has worked before. People have had quite interesting discussions on classical music in net.music. I see no reason why this cannot continue.
