Explanation for C please

I see how D is correct now. I was between C and D. Is C incorrect because Ingrid did not present any evidence?

Hi @lerondagates,

While it may not be the strongest, Ingrid does present some evidence through her claim that the rock songs of the 1940s continue to be recorded by numerous performers.

C is incorrect because Jerome actually agrees with Ingrid's claim that being recorded by numerous performers indicates durability. He is simply suggesting that there is an alternative standard by which to measure the durability of a rock song i.e. if the original recording continues to be popular.

Hope this helps! Please let us know if you have any further questions.
