I just want to note that the youthful accumulation of music is not as rosy peachy as they make it seem. When a human being is capable of hearing vast quantities of music there comes, by mathematical certainty, a point of diminishing returns. When you are listening to random obscurities all your life without forming meaningful attachments to any of it, you are creating a superficial musical judgement that may never encompass the idea of living intensely with a piece of music until you have thought it through and understand it completely.
