[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 6230145"] One wouldn't drive an 80 year old car simply because it is unlikely to continue to work, maintaining an old vehicle is difficult. But driving for "novelty" is driving pleasure. People still drive their Model-T's, their Mustangs, their Thunderbirds for PLEASURE, they are simply more difficult to maintain than a song that has been digitized. Enjoying the sound of a 1970's V8 roar to life is definitely pleasure. But your comparison is flawed. Your appreciation for mechanically poor or technically unskilled music has no bearing on it's quality, only your [I]perception[/I] of it's quality. You can like bad music, bad cars, all you want. That doesn't mean that we haven't gotten better at making music, just as we have with card, even music in the same genre. If you think science ONLY improves, I'd like to remind you of the dark ages.
