I say yes for the music one, maybe not for the first. There are literally different materials being used and increasingly optimised-for-profit-to-effort-ratio processes. Many things are just straight up made more cheaply because we have the technology to do that.

Although for the music one, a relevant lyric comes to mind:

Hip hop? Buddy, don’t get me started

So how do you get yourself charted?

Kids love this stuff 'cause it’s so new

Put in a sample from a pop song too

You’ve got a hit, how come it sold?

The melody and it’s 30 years old!
