I think they're right in at least one aspect of this statement. The Beatles would have done well because their music was the ultimate cookie cutter type pop of its day. Just look at the audiences in their concerts. “Had HSS existed in 1966 and had Decca used it to evaluate a certain demo that arrived they may not have turn down the Beatles, whose music sounded very risky for the times,” it states.

As if the human mind can be quantized and predicted. They're like the archetypal male sheuvenist using a calculated pattern to woo women.. and it is having exactly the same real effect... anyone with a modicum of grey matter between their ears is looking around and saying.. "why are all the radio stations the same?" and "I'm tired of this.. no more money for cd's" the record company is getting what it deserves for this insulting presumption... a swift slap in the face.
