Yeah, but you know what? A composer just can't win anymore. Either the music is deemed "unhummable/unmemorable/unmelodic" etc, or the music is automatically compared to recognizable styles of past composers. It's getting harder and harder to not be condemned for either being too melodic, or not melodic enough.
