That is true. People also have different concepts of what makes a good amv. Like you said, musical preference is a factor, but the matching up of style to scene is key as well. And a lot of mediocre AMVs are just a song over a scene, which occasionally work, since there are matchups like that. The key thing to know is that it doesn't have to be all action scenes, calm or sedate scenes can work too. It's perfectly matching the setting of the music to the tone you want.
