It's interesting because it implies that music is finite. Or possibly that commercial music is finite - there's an infinitely long tail of weird shit that we don't want to listen to, but the stuff we do want to listen to is confined to a finite segment of possible music.

If so then eventually all music will be free, because it will be repeating a previous iteration of the same tune.

This also implies that music is discovered, not invented.
