I usually hang out in Vinyl, so this is a change of pace

obviously we all have our opinions, thats what makes the world go round. I think we all tend towards the era we grew up in, primarily our teenage years, and to a lesser extent our twenties. I assume you are in your late 20s/early 30s, thus the 80s/90s preference, me i grew up in the 70s but always desired music from the previous decade more (60s), and lost interest in most current music after the early 90s (note most). i will agree with you that as the 70s progressed quaily certainly went downhill, but the decade did start out with a lot of good music, and there were a number of high quality albums later on, just the percentage had a steady drop off. and yes most 50s music is quite lame, but there are a number of real gems in there, early Elvis, Chuck Berry, Comets, so on, and these are the music that created the whole rock music as a mainstream type.

As for the death of the music industry, yes it is dying a slow death, you see more stores close every year except for those in vinyl, and i see this as a real positive thing, the current music industry model needs a boot, formulated, over commercialized, lacks any creativity, little if any way for real talent to rise. and an industry that ignores its customers, and lacks technical quality, (compression) and shoves trash down everyones ears. physical format or not i don't care, but the fall of the big music companies will allow new fresh opertunities to arise for true inovation and talent. the internet will allow most anyone to post thier music for sale and hopefully the best will go to the top, and it will allow unlimited variety of new music types for all people, not just pop music for teenagers. on the tech front, there will be the opertunity to allow increasingly higher res formats as well, bye bye 44K hello 192K, 384K, 768K, and so on... downloadable and playable on your PC. maybe someday the quality will even pull people like me away from vinyl, who knows. but any way good riddens to the old music industry dinosaurs!
