Most of Euro-Trance lovers call everything Trance, especially if theyre YouTubers xD.

Check the description of this, one of my first UK Hardcore songs, uploaded in one dude's Trance collection:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRgKpuO__TA

It says: "New trance for you!"

I feel like I'm gonna kill somebody! xD

Well, it is basically Trance. The fact it's tempo is faster doesn't change that!

Trance has some other specifications. It's not even euro-trance.

It's UK Hardcore without reveerbed synth - cuz i didnt know its important yet.
Or u could say UK Hardcore attempt xD. But im sure its not Trance.

'Hardcore' as we know it today is more Pop-Trance than anything else though, so you see my point.

Techno > EDM, at least if someone in the states address' it that way they have a slighter clue as to the fact that not all " Dance" music is techno.

Well the term Techno is just plain wrong. It is a specific genre (or genres) of music. EDM on the other hand is just a completely pointless term as it could mean anything. If someone asks me what i listen to then i say electronic music, if at that point they also listen to it then i will divulge which genres i listen to, but even then very generic so i know they will know what I'm talking about.
