So if so much stuff has already been done, it's harder to come up with original music.
In the 60s, if you made something like Joy Division people probably would've thought you were copying off the Doors.

People already had thousands of years of musical tradition to contend with in the 60s anyway, that's not really that different from today when you think about it.
