Great first post emiko. I pretty much agree with everything you said.
There was definitely a time where pretty much all I listened to was Japanese music (around the time I first discovered it, so 2005 I think), but with time my tastes broadened again. Like other people have said: Japanese music can be just as crappy as anywhere else (look at Arashi, KAT-TUN, etc.) Sure, American music has kind of blown lately, but that's why I'm constantly looking for new music from anywhere, not just one country. American music was great about a year or two ago, just as British Pop was. More recently K-Pop has been amazing, and it definitely doesn't stop there. I say just keep looking, because you may not think anything but Japanese music is good right now, but that's bound to change, because you obviously haven't listened to every artist from every country on Earth.
