It's not the bean counters anymore. It is now pretty normal for musicians
to come into the mastering room and demand everything to be louder.
Crank it up all the way to 12!
The problem is not much more fundamental than that.
I think there are many areas of art that are objectively "better" than
others. When people aren't exposed to them, they have no standards against
which to judge.
