Just because people listen to mainstream music from the USA doesn't mean their music tastes are bad. Nor does it say that people who listen to Ayu/asian music in general are going to have a varied music taste.

For example, I love a lot of asian music, but I also have Lady Gaga, Nick Minaj, Katy Perry, Rihanna etc in my iTunes. But I also have The Cranberries, The Verve, James, The Veronicas, Faithless, Deep Forest...those are all really different bands with different genres of music. I love having music to fit any kind of mood I'm in, and just because I like some mainstream music, whether it be from the U.K, Japan, Korea, USA etc - doesn't mean that I can't listen to, per se, "interesting non-mainstream" music.

Also to clarify, I think some mainstream music can be very interesting. It's just about giving everything a chance despite the reputation that artist or genre of music may have. You never know what you might like.
