No, but there's so much great jazz these days that wouldn't have existed without those absolute numbers. Quantity (aggregate supply) is a quality (increases specialization of labor) all its own!
- atoav 3y agoYeah, sure. But I hope you are aware your argument is dishonest? If you want to compare two times, looking at absolute numbers isn't useful unless those numbers contributed to the rise or fall of the phenomenon we are observing. Whether from that quantity new qualities emerged is a different question. E.g. the new quantity of diverse jazz listeners probably has lead to an explosion of new sub-genres, that might have never emerged otherwise. Still, just because there is more different Jazz now does not mean Jazz has become more relevant overall. This was the factor we discussed btw.
