I've wondered about this for a while, so it was interesting to read.

Of course you can find fresh or new music if you look, but I'd rather stay in the past (especially if it means no Autotune).

IDK, I think that article is just another example of "Today sucks. Yesterday was great. Except when yesterday was today."

I see what you mean, but I was interested because I thought they were trying to come up with reasons for why there isn't any big new trend in music now. The part about how stuff like Youtube or iTunes making old songs more available than ever is something I've always thought but didn't know if "respectable" media had acknowledged.
