Eh, it really depends. I'm not extremely fond of it myself, but if the artists can use the filters subtly, it can add a "fresh" element that can definitely make it sound interesting. However, most pop artists nowadays aren't really pop but hip-hop. So, if there is use of computers, it's done a lot. The bass pedal beat is compulsive, and the "instrumentals" are all computer-generated. It's not a huge problem, I mean, I will still call it music if there is a melody. The question is: "Can you or can you not hum to it?" If you can't, then it is not true music.
Regarding the rap... I have been trying to increase my tolerance for it lately. But it is basically poetry with emphasis on the meter. And an obnoxious beat behind it. But there's more. They do all of this auto-tuning and voice filters. So evidently, "rap" could easily stand for robots attempting poetry.
I am not extremely bothered by the use of computers, since the technology is available and they should feel free to use it. I just wish they didn't overdo it. Many modern rock and metal bands also use filters on their songs and instruments, though it is not as... nauseating. A little technological touch can make it sound crisp and clean, but too much just makes it annoying. For example, the band Nickelback... the singer has a filter separate the high and low pitches in his voice and brings them further apart, creating his "hoarse" voice effect. Use of computers is present in almost all genres of modern-day music, and it should not be a problem.
