+1 for 'other'.
Jungle's my love. Not just for the 'Amen'-break-fetish stereotype but generally the up-tempo physicality and versatility of styles.

I like classic rock, blues, jazz, and classical.

Mine is pop, with dance being a close second.
That's a hard poll to answer. But in reality, I like drone, old jazz, and indie the most. It depends on my mood. Music is a moodchanger for me. So, different styles are appropriate at different times.

Rock & Roll, Electronic. I can appreciate all types of music in small doses. Music is my religion

I play mainly classical stuff, but I listen to everything... Rock, pop, jazz, blues, electronica, metal, punk... Literally everything. The only genres I'm not fond of are country and hip-hop/rap, but there are songs, albums, and artists from those genres that I do enjoy immensely. I really have a thing for old-timey hymns too... Just ignore the lyrics.

As I suspected the best genre (rock) has the most votes.
I took a college course in music and we used to always discuss things like this but the origins of the names of these genres have totally lost their meaning.
Pop music, just means popular music, but this could be any style of music which just happens to be popular but no one really calls Metallica a pop band.
Indie music means independent from major record labels but this obviously isn't the case, the music people call indie now is basically a style, like grunge without distortion.
There's too many bullshit dance music genres to list, it's usually started by fucking hipsters, they see a lot of people with glasses, for example, dancing to a house music song and then "glasses house" music is a genre to them.
punk music these days has been fucked up, that's obvious to anyone who knows about punk and has heard of the "pop goes punk" albums.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
