[MD] Does Quality really exist?

[Redsky235 at aol.com]

But you're still only removing the distinctions between the wall and the  
picture, and not any inherent "quality."  Is it well built/Does it have  good 
foundation?  Well, that's purely subjective.  We "know" what  Quality is?  
Someone out there prefers the blank wall.  Someone  prefers PIL to Beethoven.  Is 
there a definitive answer to someone who's  wondering if PIL or Beethoven has 
more Quality?  You can remove the notes,  making them sound the same to the 
observers, but would that be Quality?

Is it well  built?
Is it level and square?
Does it have good foundation?
And so  on. 

So even the blank wall has its quality. In fact because it's a  simpler
form, it's quality would be more universal than a piece of art  whose
quality hinges on culture, space and  time.
