... by your comment "fewer people are being exposed to... ...good music".Although, I might re-phrase it to read:
"More people are being exposed to bad music" :-)
My two kids are more interested in today's "heavy metal", "grunge" and the like than in the music of the mid-to-late 20th century - classical, jazz and nostalgia rock hold little or no interest for them.
They are, I believe, representative of their respective generations (they're 12 years apart in age) and give a pretty good indication of the listening priorities of their generations.
So, if all one wants to listen to is heavily distorted noise, then why bother with high fidelity reproduction of that distortion? :-)
Someone else also touched on a key factor - the availability of time for dedicated listening. The ability to "multi-task" that something like an iPOD brings (Gym & listen, Jog & listen, etc) does much to address this time issue.
These are just two aspects of the differences in priorities and "drivers" that influence the allocation of disposable income in the youth of today - there are probably quite a few others...
