I feel like sometimes I was born a bit too early considering the usual quality of today's music but I am not going to generalize it because there has been a lot of amazing music artists/genres that have not existed until later on like D&B, industrial rock/metal, and a good amount of japanese electronic or pop.
However, I do wish I had the opportunity to meet Ronnie James Dio before he died or lived to witness 80s metal evolve.
In the end I do not think I was born too early or too late because I am able to witness amazing games like FF 7-10, Metal Gear Series, Phantasy Star Online, Pokemon, you name it.
Also the 00s was a time when anime became awesome hopefully there are people who agree with that.
