matrixmannPeople are easily satisfied with pretty useless and low-quality things. They don't aim for higher art or good sound quality of the rubbish they purchase as "music". Rather they care about if they think it's the best they can get.
And what they think is the best is determined by the industry wanting to make money with them.
Not that it had not been the case 10 or 20 years ago, a second explosion age of consumerism, but factual judgment and experience once had seen better periods where people listened to them.

It doesn't matter how much low quality of music MP3s are, the main subject was that you could carry it anywhere to a friend or somebody to impress and the devices didn't take up that much space in your pocket.
Or, take for example e-readers - you can take your books anywhere and you can have a thousand ones without much complication. In the view of that, it doesn't matter to them that your electronic purchases are being surveiled and studied what you could want next.
