 As much as I hate to admit it, but this part of your statement applies to me to.
I don't understand this decision and think it is a serious downgrading for those authors who have already received the prize. 
I would have hoped there'd be a distinction between people spending years to write a book and it being literature and someone writing a song. And before everyone get up to stone me, I know how songs are written, having been friends over years or decades with some of the biggest in music ever. Still, there is a difference IMO.
