All music deserves to be treated equally.


Including Inuit

and Tuvan throat singing.

If there's a large enough audience, then it deserves the best quality.

By the same measure, if hardly anyone listens to it, why should it be
broadcasted in higher quality than genres with a higher audience?

Statistically, almost no one listens to Radio 3, yet it gets priority
treatment. Why is this?
