Are pop acts like N'Sync, Britney, etc...

...electronic music?

Whether or not 99% of you posters here loathe performers of this sort, the majority songs they "produce" fall under the catagory of electronica, do they not?

Most of the instruments used in the creation of pop songs are not the traditional variety, like brass, wood, strings, etc., but, purely, software, and hardware, like mixing boards, and such.

But wait a minute...What about hip-hop? This same reasoning can be applied to the hip hop/rap genres.

Where is the line drawn?
