It's not hard for me to believe and I'm not trying to belittle your opinions, I just don't like it when people dismiss music based on anything other than what it is (i.e. lyrics and how it sounds etc).
music should go forward, it should always progress. i laugh at people who are stuck listening to old music. it makes no sense to me why you would want to listen to music in terrible quality that, like emogilly said, sounds flat.
I'm not stuck with old music lol. I listen to plenty of modern music - my favourite band at the moment is Kasabian. There's a whole spectrum of stuff to be heard from decades ago and tbh I've never even thought about quality before; nothing I listen to is in terrible quality. Just because you're moving forward doesn't mean you have to forget about where you once were.
I listen to laods of songs that are more than a year old. Don't quite go back as far as the 60s, or even 70s much, but i will listen.
Overall i prefer recent stuff.

i understand your point about wanting to stick to newer music, actually. i find excitement in the here and now, there's something incredibly different about listening to an artist that will come out with more music in the future than there is an artist that's dead and gone. i find that there is more than enough music coming out today to keep me occupied, often i even fail to catch a new awesome musician because im listening to something else.
that being said, i listen to plenty of music before my time. the furthest that i go back is the 60's and thats incredibly sparse, not much from the 70's either. i have a fair amount from the 80's despite the 80's being the absolute lowest point in modern music history. ill include anyone whose from or whose peak was in the 90's or earlier: the pixies, the smiths, the velvet underground, joy division, the beach boys, beastie boys, biggie, sunny day real estate, elliott smith, fugazi, wu-tang, my bloody valentine, neutral milk hotel, pavement, r.e.m., sonic youth, tom waits, and yo la tengo

There albums were all before 2004.

I listen to any song if it is good, no matter how old it is.
i would say music is always "progressing" yeah its changing all the time doesnt mean its getting better
