Why Is 80s Italo Trendy And 90s Europop Not?

The subject line sez it all frankly!

I am assuming - from the evidence of my ears - that the one is no better than the other. How did Italo become such a buzzword? Do you like it? If so why? (Please do not be defensive and assume I do not like it!!)

Surely Midi Maxi and Efti are already beloved of hipsters if that ILM thread is anything to go by?

The last time I looked at it it only had about 2 answers!

I only know about them cos Mark passed on a recommendation from Frank K though.

It might be a different thread about an individual song, perhaps. I remember MUCH LOVE anyway.
