I was looking into why I just don't see cover bands at my local venue but this hits a bit deeper at the issue.

I wonder if how niche music tastes have become has something to do with it.

The bloat makes it harder to find stuff you jive with

This is my biggest problem. I don't have the time like I used to to sort through all the riff raff and find the newer music I would like, so I find myself listening to the same stuff I've been listening to for 40 years. The closest I get is using Flow in Deezer to try and find something new, but even then it's rare to find something new that I enjoy. Every so often, though, I'll find that little nugget that makes me think maybe I should spend an hour or two a week sorting through some new stuff.
