I don't understand what linking two wildly different pieces of music is supposed to prove. The songs don't even serve close to the same purpose, for one. Also, newsflash: not every piece of music ever made is good. I'd wager that this has always been true, we just haven't kept around the less noteworthy works throughout history, only the really good ones - which is why we have only the really good ones. One major thing that has changed is that with digital technology, the ability to compose and create music has become much more accessible, which means people are creating a lot more crap, this is true, but there's always tons of musicians who know what they're doing and are creating valuable pieces of work, and many of those still become popular today.
But seriously, trying to compare a fully orchestrated work and a synthesized pop song like they're the same thing. Really? These are two different things! Do you think people don't create orchestrated music anymore, or something?
