NOBODY is denying that there is more music today. So I agree that there is more good music. But you are an idiot if you are saying that the taste of general population have not deteriorated GREATLY in the past 30-40 years. that is a FACT. Just comparethis 70s list with this recent list
You will notice in the first list they are ALL musicians[write their own songs] and the list is ALL about music. the 2011 list they are almost ALL females. And with the exception of Adele, its all about sex symbolism and has nothing to do with music. And then again they almost ALL performers[other people write their songs] and not musicians.
So yes more people are making crative music in their basements today. Has nothing to do with the main point of the thread. We are talking about the music industry and the populations taste in music.

how many more genres does he expect to have been made
Quick glance and I see Minimal Wave, Coldwave, Post-Punk, Synthpop, Deathrock, Darkwave and a bunch more missing.
Also, music is not dead. It is only artists who are more and more incapable as time goes by. Using the radio to judge anything is dumb because mainstream culture always has it completely wrong.
fuck I should just sell some of my Pokemon cards, if no one stakes that is what I will have to do - lostaccount

has anyone on this forum actually purchased music in the last like 5-10 years? I can't remember having done that
EDIT: Are you saying Gnarles Barkley particularly Cee-lo Green isn't popular/well received in todays world, or that the particular version of Crazy in the video wasn't well received?
i purchase pretty much all of my music.
used to download copious amounts of music in college but once i got on the apple train and had some poker monies i valued the ease of use, organization, aesthetics and time more than the money.
/not so thinly veiled brag
but seriously, i've tried to go back to my college days of being ahead of the curve on all that stuff at times and i always quickly get annoyed so don't do that anymore.
pro tip:
if you are a music guy and tilted:
-absorb some good green in absorption method of choice (optional)
-get lost in itunes adventure so your consciousness is focused on how insanely amazing your itunes adventure is and not how much money you just lost
-spend like a buyin or w/e.
you will feel a lot better getting a buyin in the middle w/ 100+% roi and the experience that goes w/ it than generally getting a buyin or so in not so good at the tables.

Here's a pretty good example of radio fucking things up. Granted this song has been overplayed so damned much it drives me insane. Also the video is really weird
original-played only on the alt rock radio station near me
version played on every other radio station
dont tap the glass...im about ready to take a fucking hammer to the aquarium
