The irony there is that music is going downhill anyways, without needing to be automatized, because now you buy songs instead of albums/discs or just listen to

The irony there is that music is going downhill anyways, without needing to be automatized, because now you buy songs instead of albums/discs or just listen to them using youtube or some free streaming service.
Plus there may be a finite number of songs -distinguishable by the human hear- than can be created.
Plus, single examples are low-hanging fruit, you need to attack the main reasoning or just assert plausibility.
- Ma8ee 12y agoIt's more great music produced now than ever in history, and it is cheap and accessible for everyone. We are many orders of magnitude before we are even starting to approach the limitations of what humans can distinguish.
- ivanca 12y agoReally, "more great than ever in history"? Tell me one single group that is better than Queen, one single singer better than Syd Barrett, one single song better than Stairway to Heaven. I believe there is good music out there, but saying "more great than ever in history" is just plain false.

Consequently, for you there will never be anything better than those groups, and if I suggested anything made today you would find it incomprehensible that anyone could think that music better than your icons.
- CalRobert 12y agoNot sure about you but my experience is that my life is full of more amazing music than it ever has been before.
