Bullshit. There is SO much more good experimental and indie/underground music being made now than there was then!

A few of their songs are. The vast majority are more or less indistinguishable from the rest of the songs of their era -- and this era, too, apart from some minor modifications in sound, instrumentation, and the subdivision of the 4/4 beat by the backing percussion.
Also, I'd assume that the best music coming out right now is all experimental or independent, simply because there's no longer really a "classical" tradition to speak of and the popular tradition is overdue for a modernist revolution.

Nah! The Beatles had some really bad songs and mostly were only reworking stereotypes (mostly The Power of Love). I would love to see how music developed without them, since they are overhyped and underquality. Comparing them to The Headroom Project or the TenGooz is like comparing a 4 year old to Da Vinci.
The Beatles had only a few songs which did not have lyrics full of naive or stupid things which made me always wonder if they realized what they sung. The Rolling Stones had Ruby Tuesday, which is one of the most meaningfull songs to me, the Beatles had Yellow Submarine and the horrible gender stereotypes in All the lonely people.

Without the Beatles music as you know it today would not exist, most likely. They are the bridge between the Rock & Roll of the 50's and early 60's and almost all Rock music after 1965. They also pioneered the concept of Album Oriented Rock with Sgt. Pepper's. Without the Beatles any band that you mention would simply not exist.
And the love song is the basic and most essential aspect of popular music - it goes back to the 10's and 20's with the earliest recorded records. It goes back to almost every folk song and ballad before that. Without the love song, almost any musical genius of the past century that you can name would have been nothing. Call it a stereotype if you want, but its a damn important one, as far as popular music goes.
Focusing on songs like Yellow Submarine is a mistake and doesn't really represent the full body of their work. Sure they had childish and naive songs like that. But they also have songs like Revolution, All You Need is Love, Strawberry Fields, and pretty much all of Abbey Road. Its easy to characterize them as the same old stuff, but only if you focus on their early hits. They quickly grew out of that phase.
