1Country is a much deeper genre than most people give it credit for, but most people only really think of the overly sentimental ThreeChordsAndTheTruth style of a singer with an acoustic guitar. Generally used to emphasize the simplicities of rural living. You will never find any fiction that seriously tries to portray a character as "cool" while listening to this genre.

3And as for nonfiction... well, country may have the lion's share of radio stations, but it seems that people who don't know country can't get past the stereotype of "uneducated hick music" (and worse) enough to actually ''listen'' to the stuff they're dissing.

5Want an example? Head to the [[http://www.rockband.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=9 Rock Band forums]] and look up "country" via the search engine. (Bear in mind: Harmonix has explicitly stated that they're going to add country eventually... and they've already added Jimmy Buffett. So it's not a ''pointless'' discussion.)
