I waxed philosophical about this in my blog a little while ago after witnessing a similar debate to this one occur on Usenet. Fundamentally, whether a particular photograph is "good" or "bad," and whether any purported piece of art is or isn't art is completely up to the viewer to decide.
There are famous works of art that some people may see absolutely no value in, and likewise there are "flat," "sooty" prints that others may value greatly. The most wonderful thing about art, and hence photography, is its ability to accommodate everyone.
