I don't think your opinion is wrong, but if you like rock music and you have a favorite band/artist, they were likely influenced by another band/artist that listened to or studied the Beatles or they have the Beatles as part of their ancestry tree of influences. There have been a lot of great artists/bands that weren't very popular (at least initially) but ended up having a major influence on music over time (e.g. the Velvet Underground). The Beatles have been one of the biggest influencers on music.
