I believe what Adorno is trying to say is that all pop music follows the same rules in content and advertising/ promotion, no matter how different the artists try to make the music, they all follow the same rules whether no matter what the music genre is:
e.g. Drum and bass, rock, metal, hip hop, dubstep, Pop punk, Techno etc.
Although all these catogories are different, they would be catogorized very different on content such as I-Pods and in shops such as HMV, if I was to go into the rock section in HMV, I would find bands such as Green Day, Four year strong, A Day to Remember, HIM, Chiodos, All American Rejects, Nivarna, Foo Fighters etc. in reality these are not all conveyed as rock. Adoro even said that he was looking forward to the day when all those awards came down. Which is in reference to the music award cereomonies, such as MTV.
I think that he is talking about a culture change due to music and a 'new world' hence his critical analysis on how all pop music follows the same rules, he once said that 'Criticism is a indispencible part on culture' Which I think means that he doesn't mean to be offend but this is his view on all pop music.
