Why Don't More People Love Audio?

Can anyone explain why high end audio seems to be forever stuck as a cottage industry? Why do my rich friends who absolutely have to have the BEST of everything and wouldn't be caught dead without expensive clothes, watch, car, home, furniture etc. settle for cheap mass produced components stuck away in a closet somewhere? I can hardly afford to go out to dinner, but I wouldn't dream of spending any less on audio or music.

Judging by how many posts this thread has received, I think many people do love audio.

My boss has clearly stated to me "I don't like music." I did not know this opinion was even possible and in my 46 years on this planet its the first time I've heard of this. I would imagine there's more people out there like this but I doubt ill ever meet another in my lifetime. No sense in trying to convert someone who probably never even turned on the car stereo.

Fascination for good music reproduction or appreciation of the same, is a God given gift that very few of us have. And I am happy that I am one of them.

Actually, this is more common among audiophiles than you might think.
