Listen on, grasshopper.
Only if you go out of your way to affect dislike of all things popular culture will you run the risk of being pretentious.
For is it not written: "I don't know much about classical music, but I know what I like..."

actually, i don't think it IS ok to listen to classic fm. If you want to listen to classical music, it really has to be obscure (not bach or brahms) and you MUST be able to recognise it immediately as soon as you hear the opening bars.
classic fm is not allowed since it has advertisements, which surely are not permissable since they contain information which could be 'up-todate' - another no-no. you must always be behind the times and not have a single clue about popular culture, issues or indeed when the sales are.

Why is it not a clasical noise but not a clasical world?

you say that to listen to clasical music you must endever to classical tasts and more or less live in the classical times. (although I find this hard to belive It could be done)
I am open to all, new and old and my liking is of both.
