A study found the average consumer attention span is 8 seconds.
Shrinking attention span and streaming are shaping the current state of music.
Streaming is blamed as part of the shrinking attention span because how much access streaming grants the consumer to artists.
This revelation is causing songwriters to re-think how they write songs and how long those songs are.
