It's becoming more musically mature. There's so many albums I've listened to and dismissed, Velvet Underground & Nico being the one that immediately springs to mind. I consider it a favourite album now, I love it.
I think if you listen to something enough, it will grow on you to the point of saying yeah, I like it.
But for you to actually LOVE it, is a different matter.
I remember recently, I listened to an album I disliked months ago. It just didn't appeal to me for some reason, I listened to it again and I liked it.
I think you can adopt other people's opinions to an extent, by tolerating certain albums/bands and saying you like it... when you're not particularly keen. But that's about it.
