I think both if you are reading too much into his comment and seeing things that aren't there. I don't think it was a jab at younger generations inability to appreciate things due to short attention spans, but more expressing sadness that streaming has killed the traditional experience/concept of an album and that it's probably never coming back.

Cool story, not my point. I'm not questioning the validity of what you're saying or the existence that people think what you're saying, but how you jumped straight to ascribing those views to the original commenter. You can make your own point without the accusations, is my point.
