This just sounds like Stockholm syndrome to me. I'll take Spotify any day please, where I can explore new genres and discover new artists spanning decades, and actually expand my mind and tastes. Back when I listened to the same CD's over and over in my car, it was stultifying. My musical taste was stagnant. I was musically trapped. Who would argue in favor of being trapped, over freedom and exploration? When it comes to music, whose entire history is about the freedom to explore and create new things?
