Comment on Why can I listen to radio for hours but when I listen to music I actually like I feel exhausted after 1 or 2 albums?

Maybe you like variety. When you listen to an entire album all the way through, you’re getting a bunch of songs that are (most likely) the same genre, the same singer, possibly the same tempo, etc.

Radio stations aren’t going to play a bunch of songs by the same artist over and over (unless it’s some sort of programming block), so you get a variety of sounds and voices. Even a radio station that sticks to a specific genre will play a bunch of artists each with their own unique style.

Listening to an album front to back can be fun experience, but also there’s merit in a big shuffled playlist of various songs from multiple artists you like.
