  Do you like music? [Let's say you said, "yes"] So, music makes you happy. [Again, let's say you said, "yes"] Having technology that allowed you to have all for your music with you all of the time would make for more happiness.

    There isn't an argument for the general case in what you've said. Do you like sugary / high calorie foods? [Let's say your ancestors evolved in an environment without high concentration sources of energy, "yes"] So, sugary / high calorie foods make you happy. But technological advances making such foods widely available have made you obese, suffer from disease, etc. You really do enjoy your 2 liters of coke a day, but over all your quality of life has diminished. etc.
