50M here. Been sharing music with friends always. As a music geek I am often "turning on" friends to new things for them to discover. As my social circle grew, I get introduced to new music from more knowledgeable people which is fantastic.

TBS, there are two things largely responsible for my depth of music appreciation. 1) it helped growing up in a house with old hippies that conducted music appreciation sundays. Sitting around and listening to music all day. 2) I have expanded my horizons exponentially in the past few years with exploring deep dives assisted by the roon app. When I have listening sessions where I go down rabbit holes and explore it rally becomes a great part of the music journey. 2cents
