it's not that they get tired of listening to music... it's that they get tired of being told what 'good' music is. they get tired of having to defend their tastes to people who's diapers they've changed. they get tired of that same bogus argument they were having 10-15 years ago when they were finishing high school / starting uni that, thanks to internet message boards, will never not be in the spotlight. even those who are still interested in new music get bored with the same constant flow of 'debates' about the merits of this band or style vs. that band or style.
what someone listen to is NOT relevant. why they listen to it IS.
