Given record sales and concert attendance, it would be more accurate to say that music isn't in a rut for you.

Since we're talking about a subjective judgment, sure.
We're in the midst of a major revolution in music distribution. While revenues are down, people are listening to more music than ever before, and getting more choice in what they can listen to. Thanks to a new generation raised on guitar hero and rock band, I predict that things are going to get even crazier very soon.
If you define a rut as "not undergoing mainstream stylistic revolution" then sure, we're in a rut.
