There was good music then. There was shite music then. There is good music now. There is shite music now. "Better" is debatable and subjective. All music hasn't become terrible; you may just have to work a little to find it now or avoid some radio stations. I don't think it's some major phenomenon or anything that wasn't already present in the 70's. Have the cultures and movements changed? Sure. I happen to like most of the music from 1960-1970 more than most of the music from 1985-1995. Both had great music & shite music. Luckily, we have the internet to bring music to you now that you wouldn't have had access to 40 years ago. Thank you, Al Gore.

But record companies in the 60's and 70's were making the bulk of their cash from the sales of LPs of artists we now look back on fondly, which had legitimate artistic ability.
Will we look on so fondly the Youtube videos of the marketable stars of today? I seriously doubt it
The money being put into record execs pockets for the most part is from the sale of vapid music, and probably not music you're listening to.
The market has changed sure, and the availability is much higher, and a band can walk into a room and hit record on a computer and boom, their album is widely available.
But maybe that isn't necessarily a good thing. I dunno, call me old fashioned.
