Simply put: the way we consume music is fundamentally different to the way we consume movies and TV.
This used to be true, but I am not sure it is any longer - at least not for everyone. Listening to the same album obsessively over and over again is certainly a phase I went when I was younger, but now I am perfectly happy to listen to Pandora, especially as my tastes have broadened, and finding new interesting stuff to listen to trumps the need to hear the same familiar stuff over and over.
Don't underestimate the average consumer's taste for repetition. In the month I've lived next to my current neighbors, they have listened to a grand total of one song. Many times.
And the songs you listen to now may one day be "classics" that you want to listen to again. Given the volume and diversity of present day music, that might only be possible if you have an MP3 stashed away somewhere.
I saw BigChampagne (http://bcdash.bigchampagne.com/who) tweet about the article, and they say that even among the younger people they work with/survey say that ownership is more important than access. I don't think it's changing.
