I've notices on a lot of guitar sites that go into any kind of depth, this one for example, at least touch on all different musical styles, not just rock. I think this interest in different styles and variety seems to be more pronounced in sites that aren't in the US. I was just kind wondering what people outside of the US think of different styles.

Like in the US, country music - bluegrass especially - is kinda viewed as music for stupid rednecks. Same goes for any type of folk music. People that like rock music seem to think other styles are not just bad, but only idiots like it. I'm not saying everyone is like that, I mean lots of people like country music, but it's just as if people don't accept variety. They're just uninterested in anything other than what they like.

Just curious about how other cultures/countries look at music styles.
