Whether you like it or not, says something about your likes and dislikes. It says nothing about the quality of the music.

Music is what it is. Its quality is neither enhanced nor debased by our opinions of it, nor affected by popularity.

Much classical music, Jazz, and opera is a minority interest, and none the worse for it.

On the subject of mediocrity one can only ask "According to whose standards, and based on what criteria?"
