How earpods are changing music?

Quartz wrote a nice notice about how listening to music on headphones/earpods in changing music. Selena Gomez and Billie Eilish made songs with style of singing almost like a whisper; music producers have to boost bass frequencies in the higher range in order for the bass to be heard well on headphones; producers are also increasingly mixing music for smaller speakers and the relatively low sound quality that comes from streaming music; headphone listening might also lead people to choose music that is more personal.
