And as a musical aside, I wonder how “Shuffle” has changed the way kids think of music. Album order is lost but OTOH you can go from Rage Against The Machine “Killing In The Name” to Led Zep “Fool in the Rain” to whatever comes next.

I loved a good albumn back in the day. And intros.

“The average intro time has dropped from more than 20 seconds to five seconds since the mid-1980s, research has found. Producer Mark Ralph said it is because the rise of streaming services means it’s now much easier to move on to the next song if you’re not instantly hooked.”
