It's harder to write a catchy pop song than a 20+ minute prog metal "epic"

One time in high school I farted and it was so bad it completely filled the classroom. Everyone started yelling in horror, and a girl screamed: “IT SMELLS LIKE CHEESE!!”

>take the pop song
>put a three minute instrumental intro before
>put a guitar solo after
>make the bridge 5 minutes of seagull noises and random notes
>another guitar solo
>instrumental outro
Now the pop song is a prog song

Both require skill. I think making a memorable pop song and an engaging 20-minute piece are both challenging tasks

pop music is disposable garbage, its not hard, the KLF even wrote a manual on how to do it.

For a guy who was in a band it's funny how Barn E. Fag never really posted on /mu/

Making pop music isn't really about music or songwriting, as much as it's about curating a fake persona/image and marketing bullshit. Basically, shoving the music down people's throats via algorhythms until it works.
"Catchy" is also vague and doesn't mean anything you could point out to objectively in descriptive terms. Maybe melody, but melody has been dead for many years now, so you can't really talk about catchiness. It might sound catchy to teenage girls and pedophiles (it's mainly marketed towards these people), but it just sounds annoying to my ears.
On the other hand, making a good +20 minute piece of music takes actual skill. Notice how I said 'good'.
