You don't "need" to do anything, but I think being open to the idea that your opinions and perceptions can change is a good thing. If I just chucked everything that didn't click with me right away I'd have missed out on a hell of a lot of good music.

I also think you might have a mistaken impression of what I'm talking about here. You keep referring to giving an album a second chance as "torture" or something you "put yourself through" as if it's some kind of difficult regimen one makes a serious commitment to. All I'm talking about here is skimming through my library looking for something to listen to and thinking, "Hmm, I forgot about this album I downloaded a couple weeks ago, maybe I'll give it another spin. I think I'm more in the mood for it today."
