Nothing in the world has disappointed me as much as reading the Wiki article on this very topic several months ago. Seeing the term 'beautiful music' used to describe music by Barbra Streisand, John Denver, and Barry Manilow just struck me as insulting to the concept of beauty in music. I know it's a silly thing to get upset over but for some reason it really pissed me off.

De_El:
Nope! You're totally right; that's a really irritating thing to have just learned.

Boy, that sure did suck.
