What exactly was Kai though? I know they cut the filler and made new openings but did they do anything besides remastering it? I think I remember reading some new scenes were made. I also know it got new music, did America keep the new Japanese music or did it change it as well?

No the blue Popo was only done for the broadcast version on the CW kids block. Funny thing he was kept black in the Nicktoons version. from what I remember what got edited for content in the Japan version was Raditz and Goku's death. The holes in the stomachs look like bruises now and I think Gohan's nudity. Not much was edited because of content.

As for the music it was new but they changed it back to the old music because they found out the composer may have stolen someone else work. We did get that score but it was changed as well.

So umm what's the general consensus here about the Bruce Falcourner vs Original music?

For me the original just cannot be topped, it's great and iconic. Falcourner's music ruins plenty of key scenes for me in DBZ. I feel people may prefer Falcourner's music since they grew up with it and nostalgia plays a big card in what you like. There are a few tracks that I enjoy like Piccolo's Theme and the Cell Game's Theme.
