The quality of music hasnt gone down at all, your desire to search for what you like appears to have reduced though. IF you want good music to be spoon fed to you, you will be disappointed as the majority of the chart stuff is poor, disposable music that in 6 months has no relevance at all.
This isnt a new thing, for as long as there has been music there wil have been terrible music as well as great stuff, its just that with hindsight we tend to forget the bad music, or at least sweep it under the carpet, and just remember the classic stuff. And in our younger days, when we are at our hungriest for music we will search deep for the stuff that we like.
I suggest you actually do some research into modern soul artists, ones that arent in the charts, and see what you can find. You'll be pleasantly surprised.
Or you can carry on moaning that music is dead.
