"Keep up" implies a correct direction to go. Which of course we all know is patently false and probably the tactic of a knucklehead.

If you're doing it right as you get older you will also start looking down your nose at a lot of the stuff you liked when you were younger too. The straw narrows, but if you care, you will find more music from multiple eras worth pursuing. Not sure how that is quantified in this study.

Aren't there laws about this sort of thing? Can't there be laws about this?

I think he's more in the douche category as opposed to an asshole.
