There is a scale that goes much like this: common - undiscerning - discerning - snob
You are somewhere on this scale. Those below you aren't as sophisticated as you, and so you're better than them. Those above you are snobs who are valuing form over function, style over substance, and so you're better than them too. How lucky for you: You've ended up at exactly the right place on the scale, everyone else is wrong, and consequently, you have no need to feel insecure.

Worthy of a quick snigger was the mention of audiophiles from a guy who seem to discern exactly what he's told to discern by advertising.
