As much as a lot of people totally hate my view, I believe that music will get more and more advanced technologically. Electronia is only the beginning of this as the latest variety of singing robots will take over. This may sound fantastical, but thinking about it, it doesn't sound too far away, what with the current charts...

Singing robots? Can you say Chuck E Cheese.  :)

I think that the acts like Britney Spears/NSYNC/BSB/etc. will either eventually switch music styles (not strictly bubblegum pop), or become less and less popular, and judging by the charts now, rock (esp. punk and alternative) and hip-hop will dominate the pop genre for awhile, before electronica becomes big (think about it, everyone liked/likes "Days Go By", "A Little Less Conversation", and Fatboy Slim songs, so I could definitely see it in the future."

You're exactly right...I guess what I meant when I posted is "When do you think POP music will change..."

Actually, it seems as if it has gradually come down from technology. Try listening to something like Front 242, Neubauten, Neu!, Roxy Music, Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk, et al. - this music was made, when? Like some 20 or 30 years ago? Now the public is listening to inane, jerky beats a la Eminem and Moby (the same crap looped over and over). If this is the current state of technology, then, by bog, music was waaaay advanced 20 or 30 years ago ::)

Most of us remeber back in 1989 when Tiffany, NKOTB, Debbie Gibbson, and other pop acts ruled popular music.  Well eventually they all died out, so much to the point thatmost people wouldn't have been caught dead listening to them.  Grunge came  along, and thier audience kind of grew out of it.
So my question is when is this current line of pop stars going to die out? and whats going to replace them?

I've been wondering the same thing.  Everything right now is still nearly the exact same way it was in the late '90s.  At least the early '90s had grunge and gangsta rap, it was changing and different.  And even the early '80s was different from the late '70s.  The early '90s wasn't a replica of the late '80s.  But all this around now, Britney, Christina, N'SYNC, BSB, Eminem, this is ALL LATE '90s.

I always hear teenagers say the early '90s were just a rerun of the '80s to them.  Well that's just bull.  There were plenty of things different in pop culture in the early '90s from the late '80s.  This time right now in 2002 is almost exactly like the late '90s.

When will music change?  Hopefully soon.  There isnt crap outright now.

I say it's changing as we post this. A lot of the Backstreet/N'Sync/Britney Spears-type of music looks like it's fading out now. I'd say it's being replaced by some post-grunge bands, but that would be too optimistic.
