Of course. We are overstimulated so it becomes the norm. Then to get 
stimulated the level of stimulation has to be raised. Just think about a 
subject like nudity where the level of stimulation raised from seeing an 
ankle to a knee, ... or a neck,  and shorten the length of skirts over 
time ;-)

To come back to music, there is ton of crap music (rich internet 
sensation?) and Lilypond can help compose and interpret great music.  I 
hope we can all agree on that one ;-)
