It's sad that the through the whole of the 20th century music quality has increased, but so far this century has seen a constant decline, with mp3, awful ipod docks, excessive limiting, autotune. I was just looking through the observer 100 best albums of the decade, it's been a terrible time for good music. Obviously there has still been some excellent music released since 2000, but it is eclipsed by the relentless churning bilge we are continually bombarded with. You would think that it would be a good thing because it should be easier to stand out by actually putting thought into your music, but judging by the success of people like akon and t-pain, people don't know what good is anymore.
Merry christmas ;-)
