Rock and roll music

I think it's funny how rock and roll has its background in country, and yet every person I know that listens to modern day rock does not like country. I personally do not really mind country, but I would much rather listen to something else. I think today's rock and roll music is becoming more rooted with the pop genre, as it seems a lot of songs are becoming auto tuned. I wonder if it will continue to morph with other genres in future.
