When it comes to music, do kids today have it better or worse than the generations before them?

I decided to do some research into the matter. By "research," I mean I asked my teenagers some questions, and then compared their answers to my opinions. Around here, we call that science. (What do you expect? I'm a blogger, not a reporter.)

Here are the results of my research: Kids today have it totally made in the shade.

But not in every way. The beyond-teenage generations (yeah, that's you already) still had it better in some ways.
