I do not understand time signatures and can not find videos that explain why they matter.
How is 3/4 and 6/8 different and would a song sound different if a 6/8 song was played in 3/4?
Why not just write every song in common time and move the measure line?

3/4 and 6/8 both simplify to a duration of 0.75 per measure but the difference is 3/4 uses quarter notes while 6/8 uses eighth notes. Thus 3/4 packs only three notes into the same time as 6/8 packs six, therefore 3/4 sounds slower and 6/8 sounds faster.
