Disagree, but show me some bands doing amazing things. Great music was more popular in the past, now you have to wade through piles and piles of crap to find it, so no, I'd say music is not getting better.

The Head and The Heart
The Avett Brothers (I and Love and You is the best album of the past 10 years)
The Black Keys
White Stripes
The Tallest Man on Earth
If I knew what you liked I could be more specific, but that's a good start. -

Jazz? Check out Gregory Porter. His song "Be Good" is one of my absolute favorites.
If you like Rock than you should know The Black Keys and The White Stripes. Some others from the 90's til now include The Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Nuetral Milk Hotel, Radiohead, Paramore, The Strokes, The Weeks, Blind Pilot. And I'm only taking about stuff that is pretty mainstream. There's plenty of great rock stuff out there. -

The 90's had great music across the board.. Jodeci, EnVogue, Janet Jackson, After 7, Monica, Brandy, Usher, Mariah Carey,Brian McKnight.. That is just a few in the R&B realm. Tupac, Ice Cube, Scarface, Jay-Z,Nas.. And God knows how many other great hip-hop artists.. Pop had Madonna, Pink,Destiny's Child, Paula Abdul.. Hell even Michael Jackson was still making music throughout the 90's. This is just a small list of the unbelievably talented artists of that decade. Nothing being produced today can match it..

I was born in 1991, so music to me back in the late '90s and early '00s growing up has it's hit or miss. Oh, you also forgot No Authority, 98 Degrees, LFO, Aaron Carter, BBMak, O-Town, Play, and B2K . Aaron was such a babe back in the day and most people now often refer to him as the original Justin Beiber (which is something that offends me sometimes lol).

90s was one of the best decades ever for music, and the ea5b4rly 00s. most of today's mainstream music is sickening, I'm christian and there was some especially great christian music from the 90s, that's when you bands like Jars of Clay, Newsboys (the real Newsboys)were just getting started, Amy Grant was still pretty good, switchfoot, I think came about the late 90s early 00s.. and there there is Lifehouse.. I was born in 1990. so maybe I'm a bit nostalgic of that era. everything just seemed better then. if you want anything good from today. you have to go Alternative/Indie. like mumford & sons, of Monsters and Men. Imagine Dragons, the Lumineers to name a few. the 80s was pretty good. hate anything pretty much from the 70s though

Some of the 90's music was quite good as for this, think Bieber is the cherry ontop of the mall rat Disney pop continuum, It can't get worse than this skinny vane warped little mutt , where materialism & the shallow collide in perfect stupidity.
He looks like he's going to have problems with speed later, head on collisions with walls, trucks , trains & such. -

I was born in '94. I call myself a Transition Baby (lol) because I spent half of my childhood in the 90's and the other half in the 2000s.
Honestly, I believe that the music from 90's is better, but not by a lot. Both of the eras feature insanely auto-tuned artists and horribly manufactured and overly-processed music. One thing that I did like about the 90's though is that the pop stars did not come from Disney. Everybody knows that Disney is not known for producing stars with too much talent. They choose kids solely based on looks, give them a TV show, auto-tune their "singing" voices, and give them a career. Back then, Disney stars stayed on Disney and you wouldn't have to suffer through their crappy music on the Top 40 Station.

Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake and JC Chasez from Nsync. Keri Russell being a 90's tv star with ''Felicity''.

"Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake and JC Chasez from Nsync. Keri Russell being a 90's tv star with ''Felicity''."
Disney channel back in the 90s was nothing like it became years later. When "MMC" was cancelled, those people had dropped out of Disney to go back to being normal kids and search for they're careers. However, with the likes of Hilary Duff, Miley, the HSM cast, Selena, Demi,& the Jonas brothers, none of them would be as famous as they are/were if it wasn't for Disney. -

Back in the SIXTIES, which you forgot all about, you could hear talented Annette and Hayley. The first boy bands were the Osmonds and De Franco Family but in the Ed Sullivan, Milton Berle era (explaining the big-band brasses and strings used with the rock guitars back thenwhen I was already ten.I'm gettin' to beee an ollllld man..) BTW Lorde (and the recently teenaged, before 2011,) Adele write all their stuff and are excellent!

Late 90s and early 00s had better pop music and overall feel of the pop industry. I think because pop was starting to be "it" again, and so it had a lot to prove. Pop stars were more involved in their image and attempted to promote their work really well.
Now a days, with twitter, social media and overproduced amount of paparazzi armies, celebrities tend to do 50% or less promotion and work than what they did back in the day.
Also, now a days, it seems like its harder to keep their personal lives hushed and under control. Teen idols going bad has reached a new interest level and unfortunately, with this, it makes it harder for these teen idols to think twice before messing up. -
