The Real Reason Why Music Is Getting Worse!!

I'm not a big Beato fan but he makes some good points at time. This is one of those times IMO. I know some of the younger generation will disagree with the whole premise. Being born in 1951 the boomer gen was hit with the same  indictment about the new Rock & Roll music. There was some truth in it. But we didn't care because we liked R&R. I expect the same from some today who like today's music. but I think if you listen you may find some morsels which can be enlightening. This is especially true for musicians who may find they agree wholeheartedly..

Quantity over quality. When music becomes almost free it becomes worthless!

I refuse to stream. All my listening is to physical media that I have searched for and bought.

I'm 73 and I disagree with Beato pretty much all the time when he's whining about how 'his music' just isn't relevant to 'the kids' anymore.

He sounds like people of my parents' generation moaning about the Beatles and and that new rock and roll stuff - 'that's not music! That's screaming!' -  when they first came on the scene, and why can't the kids like Perry Como and Dean Martin like they do? That's real music....

There's always been great music. There's always been not-great music. Often that is totally subjective and boils down to taste and life experience.

For all of us above 50 the new music today is only sound. For them is music.
