I will admit that due to my age, other than when I am trapped listening to Radio Disney w/ daughter in the car, I don't listen to a lot of "current" music. However, I do have an awareness of what is out there.

Considering the way that the delivery of music has changed (downloads vs. buying the album/CD; Youtube vs. MTV) and the way that has been reflected in how the industry has changed, are The Grammys still relevant?

They're relevant to pop music and the people that listen to it just like they always have been

They are worthless...just like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Like others have said, Grammys have never been relevant or free of bias to pop music.

Honestly don't know a single person who watches or admits to watching the Grammy's. Or any pop awards (Music/Movies)

Real artists don't need a little gold-plated paper weight.

Today's music is mostly irrelevant so the Grammy's are DEFINITELY irrelevant.

grammy's are certainly irrelevant as it pertains to music with any sort of "artistic" substance to it
