The trouble is many of us have simply allowed the general quality of popular music to deteriorate significantly over the past 30-odd years or so through sheer complacency of our own making.

And yes I know many of the music labels themselves have been partly to blame for making beelines towards the easiest, quickest and cheapest options long before the Internet even took over (quantity over quality and all that), plus I bet many people bemoaning the current state of the music industry haven't even purchased a physical music format for over 20 years, even releases that are still actually worth buying and listening to.

A kind of vicious circle I think.

But nevertheless I'm happy that BI now seems to be feeling over the worst.
