This whole discussion is basically saying "McDonalds" is horrible and anyone who eats there is a moron. Really? There are Billions of morons that somehow just arent getting it? Wake up. They've come up with a product that is valid for a market.
Is the "All fresh market ingredient" resteraunt better? 9 times out of 10, I'd say yes, but it depends what your looking for at the time. Some days, a Big Mac could be what you really want. That's up to the indivual to say, not me.

McDonald's is popular because they're cheap and fast. Nickelback are popular because people are lazy. People generally just want to be entertained when they listen to music, watch TV/movies, read, etc. They don't want to have to do a lot of thinking when they're getting their entertainment fix, hence why shows like Jersey Shore, The Hills, etc. are so popular. It's also why celebrity gossip mags sell better than something like The Economist.
I'm not saying one is right over the other. It's just a question of priorities and most people just prefer the plug in and shut off mode of entertainment.
