I can't believe anyone would even argue the greatness of the Beatles? You can say you don't like them, but you put your ignorance on display if you don't acknowledge their absolute greatness, beyond compare.
You cannot compare the Beatles to any other rock band. You can compare them to Wolfgang Amedeus Mozart, Ludwig Van Beethoven, George Gershwin, but don't throw out the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin or Elvis, their not in the same league.
400 yrs from now people will still love the Beatles and all the words to their songs as we, even though it is subconscience, know all the works of Mozart. They are that important to Western (and far eastern Japan, Vietnam, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, the Phillipines) culture.
I will say that the Beatles are NOT my favorite band. But I will agree they are the most important band EVER. There is not any question of that. There would be no Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin(my Favorite), Elton John, Artic Monkey, Oasis (especially Oasis), Fleetwood Mac, heck even Metallica without the Beatles.
