Actually, I wouldn't use the term "crap", exactly because of that, I would say to me there is good music and bad music, good music is every piece I like or think that sounds good even though I wouldn't listen to it very much, bad music is everything else that I don't like at all, I know, however, that many people love things that I don't think have any bit of quality into, and I respect that, because music is a form of art, which means it must be done by an artist, and each artist does his kind of music, the music that sounds good to him.
One thing you don't mention, is the fact it's much easier to do music today than ever before.
"Digital music", this demon of yours, allows anyone to easily make electronic music, which can serve as an entrance to the world of music, a world that otherwise would never be discovered.
It takes alot of practice and dedication to play most instruments, but any random idiot can pick his cell phone and use the custom ring-tone feature to compose a little melody.
Likewise, a learning piano player can plug his digital keyboard into his digital computer and use digital software to play the songs or parts he's not yet able to play alone, or, use it to practice with a 2nd digital piano, and soon enough he'll start composing his own stuff, whatever style of music he likes.
Years ago, you'd need a real piano, which costs a fortune, and you'd have no software to help you or to have fun with or to help you compose your own stuff.
So today you can find new talent much easier, just make good use of it and like you preach, use quality recording.
