>Was music in the '60s and '70s better than music today? Probably not.
Yes, it was absolutely better. This "it's just your age" thing is BS. The entire music industry back then was different; bands were discovered by record company agents, not manufactured by them. And Auto-tune didn't exist either, so if someone was a great singer, you knew it was real and not just computer-generated fakery like now.
Similarly, you can't say that music of the, say, 1890s, was just as good as music from the 1970s. They were fundamentally different: recorded music basically didn't exist in the 1890s.
