Gotcha gotcha gotcha. Yes, I agree; these always filter towards the average, which is definitionally your primarily pop music listener and thus the subject group becomes that artist set

They beat me to it haha! People into jazz, classical, world music, progressive metal, etc would certainly rate things vastly differently from people who listen to pop music alone. These studies only target the averagest of persons.
