lots of old farts in this thread...
i was born in 78. perhaps this has something to do with the fact that i don't care for most music prior to about 1985. in fact, around half of my 150gb collection comes from the last decade. there is a tremendous amount of very good modern music out there.
modern jazz and funk, hip hop, trip hop, downbeat electronic, post rock... all infinitely better than the scream-in-your-ear uk garage punk garbage, or tripping balls love your neighbor 70s pop. and most especially that so called 'classic rock' which consists mostly of obnoxious chainsmokers grumbling about tequila and patriotism to the same guitar riffs over and over.
the variety of styles available today is absolutely astonishing. take some time and learn to appreciate something other than guitars with drums...
