“Rather than people [becoming open to] more musical genres, we are seeing the reworking of the boundaries of musical genres themselves,” Savage and Gayo write. “What we are seeing today could be a fundamental remaking of the musical canon.”

In the United States, I'm noticing something of a split. Yes, the music where you hear an F-bomb in every line is still popular, but we're gradually moving away from it. More innocent music is beginning to regain its popularity and I would expect that trend to continue.

Course, I wish the Culture Warriors would shut up about the "never in the history of this country have we been so immoral" crap.
