I wonder if buying music defined the way we like music. My kids stream
music, and listen to a variety of artists. If I ask them who the artist
is, I'll usually get a *shrug*, unless it's an artist who's they know
from a video or social network.

When I was a kid, finding out about an artist was a task - reading the
liner notes, checking out the music mags, hanging at the record store
and talking to the people who worked there, saving up for that album,
looking for the back catalog - I think that search made it more profound
than having all the music and information at your fingertips.
