The author has some great points here and it’s interesting to see parallels drawn between both music and movie/film/streaming genres.
I was a radio dj in college and the only real rule (aside from legal stuff etc) was we could play an artist only once per quarter - the result for me was just playing the newest music that was coming into the studio.
It’s quite appropriate imo to identify music streaming as kind of a common denominator for music age - people just play what they’re familiar with. I love music and a big big part of this is the discovery process; the radio is great for discovery but it’s ephemeral - and a streaming or listening service such as spotify is a great way to expand on those leads.
No firm opinions here, it just seems like more people listening more to older music makes sense and is kind of a weighted average. The “moving picture” medium is a different thing, maybe..
