Plus there's so much more music each day it all gets diluted and hard to find.

I also always felt like as we move on artists will be much smaller as far as their following, like their time of fame will be smaller and shorter. Comparing like Beethoven who is world famous for generations to like metallica who is pretty big then like Taylor swift who is also huge but I feel each window getting shorter lived as more people spread out their preferences amongst all the artists and people use algorithms instead of buying an artists CD

It also can be pretty hard to find music you will actually like. Every streaming and sales service is more interested in promoting content based on who paid them off or based on what is cheap for them to stream. It seems like there are not a lot of resources geared specifically with connecting you to music that you are likely to enjoy.

I usually troll through new albums each month and just listen to a bunch of stuff until I find something I like.
