I don't think that's necessarily true.
Take YouTube. 99.9998% of YouTube is crap, presumably because *anybody*
can post *anything*. You don't get to release a recording with a major
record label unless you're minimally competant.

Indeed. I would imagine all the music ever recorded in the 1950s numbers
in the hundred billions, and I've got, like, 30 tracks here.

Most classical music sounds dull and boring to me. Only a select few
pieces are worth hearing. Every year my mum forces me to listen to the
New Year's Day concert in Vienna. *yawn*
It's the same with organ music. Once you get over the initial "this is a
pipe organ", most of it is unspeakably dull. But every now and then, the
occasional piece comes along which sounds awesome all the way through.

Bahahaha!
I'm wondering what 21st century music will still be popular in 50 years'
time. I honestly can't think of any good music I've heard recently
that's new.
