Why do almost all women today hate home audio?

@tylermunns- I generally don't get into the substance of active cases here but I think the Led Zep case helped push back some of Blurred Lines. A friend's firm handled the Sheeran case.  I'm occasionally pulled in to cases as an expert on U.S. law or music business practices. I do teach (at UT Law in Austin) but I'm also thinking of going back to school for archival preservation and library science--there's a preservation side and also a more analytical side (think: AI interfaces). I've been spending as much time on the history as on the advances if that makes any sense. Thanks for asking.

Don’t know what you’re really talking about.
If it’s depletion of an interest in home audio and vinyl, it affects both equally.’

Lol, I’d like to know on what planet you are living my dear sir. In my many decades on the earthly plain, I rarely have come across females that like audio HiFi as a hobby. In fact many are openly hostile to it as it invades upon their idea of ‘house beautiful’. I also can understand why many consider their husbands to have gone barmy, what with the regulary insane amounts of money we justify and sink into our hobby. Many women consider this hobby a form of addiction (and there is often more than a grain of truth to that).

@larsman thanks for the suggestion; a very interesting and educational to me answer to my question here:

I'd have to agree that, in almost all respects, this is a niche market. Few people care enough to truly devote to it. Let's just accept it and continue on our merry way.
