Two derided genres!! Which do you prefer? Or do you hate both? Go at it!

I got better things to do with my musical time so it's kind of hard to like or hate either if I'm not paying any attention.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

As far as I'm concerned, I am rather tolerant with any kind of music.

So, both for me.
 
By the way, today I listened to a very fine disco/funk band, Ace Of Spectrum, which album 'just like in the movies' was reedited by the eclectic label Wounded Bird records.

Definitely disco for me.  I actually like a lot of early disco funk music and disco electronic, and I enjoy a great deal of music with disco qualities.  I can't the same for hair metal.

Okay, I know you're very eclectic, but now it sounds frightening.

I can hardly stand the monotonous rhythm of disco, the cheesiness of its musical arrangements... Wait a minute, I'm talking about hair-metal!

The "Disco" era produced some very good music during its time.

Disco is pretty fun
I'm so mad that you enjoy a certain combination of noises that I don't

Excuse me, but why the hell are you categorizing Earth, Wind & Fire or Chic as "disco" bands? I'm not an expert - and I don't want to sound like one - but I think you're seriously mistaking funk for disco.

I would rather cut my ears off with a rusty keyhole saw than listen to either genre.

 Ermm ... the genre of disco might contain some of the worst music ever recorded ever.

Good funk is cool, but straight disco albums should be burned and then incinerated.
