The folks who actually actively listen to music on a good home hi-fi have pretty much went the way of the dodo. Most seem to only listen through earbuds and computer speakers while they are doing something else like running or driving or doing the dishes. Popular music reflects the listening habits of the audience, that’s why most popular music is recorded and mixed the way it is. It generally sounds like garbage on good systems, and the concept of an album as a discrete thing to be listened to all the way through is gone.
