While originally it was defined solely as merely meaning popular music, the term has evolved, with a second definition.

This newer use defines mostly mainstream music. Catchy, simpler rhythms, repeating chorus, minimal (or no) guitar, heavy drum beats, streamlined lyrics that don't really have a deeper meaning, and so on. Acts such as Britney Spears, Lily Allen, late 80's/early 80's-on Michael Jackson, Christina Aguilera, and the like... would not be categorized as rock, hip hop, R&B (while a common element of pop music), metal, blues, or anything else... it would be categorized as "Pop Music". It is a genre as well as a term referring to music that is popular.

Pop Music is just like cancer to your ears; you don't like it and therefore you try to avoid it by staying away from it. However, sometimes it leaks out into your system and can cause serious sickness and in some cases, death.

Sadly, quite a few people, especially teens, expose themselves to high levels of it. This can lead to serious consequences later in life.
Pop Music sucks, and it's only getting worse.

A mediocre, profit-oriented style of music with no real value. Pop music typically follows a formula guaranteed to make the most money. Because of this, nearly all pop music is completely unoriginal.
All this pop music is driving me crazy!!
