They really should give this sort of shite a totally different genre
This is what dubstep used to sound like, and skrillex's brand of shite has put me right off it this year:

I know its just a tag, a name, a genre, but 'dubstep' is a joke now.

Yes, correct
I was very surprised when somebody first played me dubstep - I was expecting something more like this:

but I guess that's just 'dub' without the 'step'.
I was also confused when the term RnB started appearing everywhere recently. I always thought it stood for Rhythm and Blues....

:D wikifriend.
The term has subsequently had a number of shifts in meaning. In the early 1950s, the term rhythm and blues was frequently applied to blues records. Starting in the mid-1950s, after this style of music contributed to the development of rock and roll, the term "R&B" became used to refer to music styles that developed from and incorporated electric blues, as well as gospel and soul music. By the 1970s, rhythm and blues was used as a blanket term for soul and funk. In the 1980s, a newer style of R&B developed, becoming known as "Contemporary R&B".

I went to uni with a lot of people who have ended up in the dubstep movement
And it's much more like this; the popular stuff is more of a "noise-dance" version.

Yeah, the mainstream stuff is basically un-subtle, mindless shite
But it has tainted my enjoyment of the good stuff heavily.
Just the word 'dubstep' makes me cringe now, and conjures up endless remixes, memes and youtube videos like 'LROD OF TEH RING GANDALF DUBSTEP' and 'EPIC NYAN CAT 4CHAN DUBSTEP REMIX WIN!!!!!'

It's also made me irritated by occasional triplets
I'll never forgive it for that.
