Both bands are a product of the times.

Don't really know what this means.  The Beatles singlehandedly revolutionized rock music.  I don't know how anything they did can be considered a "product of the times", since the times were really a product of them.

Anyway, The Stones are fine, but The Beatles are legendary.

Two of the biggest bands of all time, and certainly two of the biggest bands of the British Invasion.

Fix me if im wrong, but Pink Floyd are bigger than The Rolling Stones?

Floyd have sold more records, but they're not a British Invasion band.

It means I have no argument and I'm just spouting bullshit because I don't like the two bands.

why

As far as I can remember, Pink Floyd didn't really become the massive and influential band they are today until  the 70's.

The British Invasion was mostly during '64-'66. Floyd's first album was released in August '67 and didn't exactly sell like hotcakes in the US at the time.

I dislike both bands.

But if I have to vote, I'll go with the Beatles.
I only listen to electro-post dubprog.  You've probably never heard of it.

There are very few Stones songs I like in general but those that I do I prefer over the Beatles best songs


But overall  the Beatles discography over the Stones , if that makes any sense

The Beatles. The Stones had a good run in the 60's and part of the 70's but they never reached the level the Beatles did.

If I can be a stickler, John never said "better"...he said "more popular"...which was probably correct.
