Say what you will about the band, but if they suck so much then why are they raking in millions?

Just a thought....

So...Making a lot of money means you're a good band, then?

So, BR, does that mean that, as awesome as Nippleback MUST be, N*Sync is far superior as a band?

Hmm, guess I should have worded that a touch better. I was trying to imply that a lot of people out there like them so they must be doing something right and as RDD said, marketing.

It applies to several bands and singers, I was just noticing there appears to be a lot of Nickelback bashing and as someone who likes them, just wanted to point that out...

N*Sync is far superior as a band than Nickelback, and, JC Chasez' solo work is pretty fun stuff.

You could apply the same logic to any boy band though.

If you're going to make the point for Nickelback, you might as well make it for every other act that goes multiplatinum these days.

Popular may not equal bad, but neither does it equal good. Homogeny sells, and a good reason for their success is illustrated by playing both those songs over each other.

Especially on the last two CDs, when JC and Justin wrote most of the music, they were a pretty diverse and fun band. Compare this to Nickelback, who has the same 4 songs.
