There was definitely a time when I would have agreed with you, and I still listen to and appreciate the classics just as I would anything else. But the classics never move forward, never expand beyond the past. I'd rather keep and listen to it all and continue exploring current (good) music as it evolves. Only listening to the classics would eventually grow tiring, as I don't think I could ever fully appreciate the paradigm from whence it came.
Granted, if there's ever a time when I grow so distanced from contemporary music that I hate it all, maybe I'll retreat my words.
