I don't share your feelings, personally, but I know where you're coming
from. Membership is probably still growing, although more slowly than
before I'm sure as some people unsub, like any list, but as far as a place
to learn about new music, there's tons on the list. About 50% of the
relevant record labels out there post updates and newsletters to the list,
detailing new releases and upcoming releases.
One of the ways to turn the list more to your liking is to a) stop having
meta-discussions (like asking why the list is a certain way, no offense),
and b) post reviews and questions to the list. Wanna know about new
stuff? ASK!
Someone else asked about lunch. What's stopping other people from asking
about a new cd?
