consider yourself lucky: you are born just about 2 centuries from first image
and sound recording techniques made possible to such cultural goodies to
propagate like never before in mankind history. People 1000 years from now may
well still have access to Elvis recordings... if they'll understand or
appreciate it is another matter.

Why wouldn't they? Do you not appreciate the music of 1000 years ago?

A bit specialised for everyday listening, don't ya think?
Anyway how many people appreciate Baroque never mind Medieval music?
Tastes change and I think that in 1000 years time the common music of
today will only be of academic interest. I might be wrong and I will
never know.

no. I dig 200-100 years ago and most won't go as far as that. Farther from
that it's just too alien to our current western taste.
People may just listen to Elvis then and be as puzzled as when listening to
medieval folk music...

The King of Shreds and Patches
anyway, the difference between now and then is that digital storage and
distribution of culture make for virtually infinite reproduction. 1000 years
from now, you may very well just find music you like and enjoy it without even
knowing the date of composition and recording.
That is, if manking hasn't simply merged with AI by then and lost interest in
such mundane affairs.
