Why do we stop listening to new music as we get older?

Hello all,

Sometimes I find myself wondering why there is so little newer music in my library. Now, before you start in with rants about "New music is terrible!", I found this rather interesting article on the topic. (SFW)

 

With the maturing of streaming as a music delivery platform, and the ease of being able to surf new artists and music, it might be time to break my old listening habits and find some newer artists.

Happy listening.

I haven't read the article yet but looking at the responses, it seems many of us are searching for new music as a sole pursuit. In our teens and twenties, you found music with your friends. Once you start your own family, that spare time is largely gone and thus an important avenue for discovering new music.

I could be totally wrong about this. It's happened once or twice before.
