Likes...
Miles Davis, Medeski, Martin & Wood, Mudvayne, Sevendust, Tool, NIN, 311, Wynton Marsalis, Rush, Coltrane.

Dislikes...
This is hard because if I don't like them I don't care to remember names, so instead I'll break it into types of music. (Hopefully this doesn't start a war, it's only my humble opinion.)
Here goes...
Rap (with the exception of old stuff like Run DMC & Beastie Boys)
Pop music (mostly the stuff you listed in your dislikes)
Death metal (any band where the singer sounds like he's gargling mud)

Cheers

Likes: Anything Miles Davis did with Gil Evans, Other Miles Davis Except his acid stuff in the late 60s- early 70s, Monk, Mingus, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughn, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Art Blakie (spelling???), Jethro Tull, Beatles, Steely Dan, any thing Beethoven or Bach, Led Zep., old Rhythm and Blues, Puccini and Verdi operas just off the top of my head. It's a lot more than 10, but I've been given the gift of having eclectic tastes.

Dislikes: Country Music-- It makes me want to have sex with my sister. It also loosens my teeth in my mouth. Hip Hop, Most Pop from any era (except the Beatles), Smooth Jazz, most Rap, Mega Death Screamo-Kill-My-Mother-With-My-Guitar Metal, But most of all: Any singing group that has no musicians and calls themselves a "band".

That pretty much sums it up... although I'm from a redneck town, so I can tolerate some country. There's some strange apeal to me in hearing that root-fifth over and over.

I like good music. The genre doesn't matter, it's the music that does.
