Why are new genres created? Why is the definition of genre controversial and not so applicable to the formation of digital genres?
Genre is to categorize and organize all types of media. Genres changes over time, each time has its own trend and style. As human, we like different type of music or movies over time, maybe we like pop when we were 16's and when we grow older we might change our taste to Jazz or R&B. This is why new genres are continue created. The definition of genre is controversial because it's very broad and vague to categorize certain type or things into genre. For example music, it can have different type of genre into one song, like pop,rap and others, which can create to another genre. Therefore, due to more and more new genres created, it come harder and harder to define now.

Genres are usually need some time to be categorize and define and they are also very broad so it will be very hard to define all of them in figital genres since they are so many types, like personal website, or blog. So it will take a while to create the digital genres.
