"Why don't more people like rap music"

This would be a thread were most of the posts were by rap music fans who speculated about whether it was lack of exposure, peer pressure or because the listeners had not been trained to understand the music. There would probably also be citations of studies showing how listening to rap music in the crib could increase the IQ of children.

Yamaha has recalled 20,000 pianos due to a problem with the pedal sticking, causing pianists to play faster than they normally would, resulting in a dangerous number of accidentals. The sticky pedal also makes it harder for pianists to come to a full stop at the end of a piece making it extremely risky for audiences. Although there have been a tremendous number of accidentals, fortunately it has so far caused no deafs. Analysts are wondering if it will put a damper on their bass market and if they will be able to sustain sales. Congress is also considering calling in the President of Yamaha for questioning as to when the company first learned about the treble.
