Salsa and merengue dying? I don't think so. I think in 20 years, people will still be listening to Salsa standards, though merengue seems to be evolving by mixing with other styles.

I think it's great that songs can be reinvented in different styles of music. Raulin has done a couple Jorge Celedon covers and of the two styles, I prefer the bachata much more; I'm just not a fan of accordians. A good song like "Quiero Saber de Ti" can work in many different genres.
