5 reasons for which I do not like the Jonas Brothers' music, written by me:
1-They are not virtuous. They don't play any respectable guitar solo, and they don't play the bass nor drum. Even the guitar, it's so poor played.
2-They don't became famous by their own merit. Their jump to reputation owes to the EXCELLENT advertising from Disney.
3-They don't contribute with something new. Neither a new music genre, nor new topics in their song, nor at least a new way of dressing.
4-They're a mode. They are listened by girls between 13 and 16 years old. The rest of people with a little bit of music knowledge, don't consider them like real and pure music.
5-They AREN'T ROCK. They play pop music, maybe pop-rock. They're sticky, commercial, like a product to sell. Real rock is free, it isn't another best-selling product.

I don't like the Jonas Brothers at all, but just for the sake of accuracy, according to Wikipedia, they do play the drums and also the piano, though from what I can tell not very well by any means.
I don't think the point of the Jonas Brothers was to give kids good music anyway, so I fail to see the argument when people say that they're horrible musicians, because they're not musicians in the first place. They're entertainers for little kids, and that's it. They're a boy band and I don't really see them denying that. It's their fans who refuse to admit that and go around claiming that they're "hard rock" or whatever. That's why there's a whole lot more of them in the Celebrities section than here.
Your grammar is a bit atrocious though, sorry to say, but I do agree with your reasons, if you hypothetically actually wanted to consider the Jonas Brothers actual musicians.
Edit: Oh well, if you're just learning, you're pretty good actually. =P
I agree with many parts of your 5 reasons, but I also agree with Heuristic ALgorithmic computer. People should just leave The Jonas Brothers alone, including their fans. Yes, I do find the Jonas Brothers to be annoying, and their fame is unfair, but ignore them and you won't hear about them all the time.
Playing devil's advocate:
1. Most punk rock and garage rock is poorly played, yet respected.
2. How they became famous is irrelevant to their music.
3. Not many bands can contribute something new. Frank Sinatra wasn't particularly innovative, he was just a great singer. Nirvana didn't do that many things that hadn't been done before, but they played great music.
4. Most modern music is only listened to by teenagers. Should we hate all new music?
5. Neither is Miles Davis. He must suck. Rock being free seems a little crazy. Even Rage Against The Machine, an anti-capitalist rock bands doesn't give away their records. The Beatles were a huge product. Movies, cartoons, lunch boxes, you name it.
Jay is correct. The Jonas Brothers play simple pop. Their music isn't written to show of their technical skills. The play catchy music for kids, and they don't claim to do anything else.
I don't like them either. They're DEFINITELY not rock, just bad pop.
To be fair, they can play drums and piano, but they just have a backup band do it instead.
I think you forgot to mention how bad their voices are.
Jonas forever or whatever your name is, is somEthing wrONg with Your keyBOard? And you have the musical knowledge of a two-year old, cause that's the age group the Jonas Brothers appeal to.
Who are the Jonas Brothers? Oh yeah they're a Disney Pop group made of fail
