I'm not actually convinced that people _are_ sheep about most things. They just mostly like things I don't.
If they were really sheep then things like New Coke would have taken off. The occasional complete misstep where a massive advertising budget and huge marketing campaigns fail to work indicate to me that you really can't _make_ people like something, you can only bring it to their attention in a positive way.
Of course, this might be a way of deliberately throwing me off the scent :->

* I don't care one way or the other -- it might be technically brilliant (or not) but I'm simply not interested in that kind of thing
* Why are people such sheep, anyway?
