Oh there's nothing WRONG with it, after all we are all music geeks here, though certainly a superior type to...those people. But music geeks are not representative, really.
Funny last.fm tale - got invited to join grime-based group, did so, when weekly charts emerged they read as expected until, 20 artists down, loomed the name THE SMITHS. They get sodding everywhere :(
The thing is nobody really knows what's "representative" or not or even whether "representative" has any meaning at all, given that a lot of people listen to music in the context of specific small social groups. This is one of the interesting things about music.
If there is a massive disconnect between heavy users and light users that would make music quite an unusual commodity!
