Oops, didn't notice your reply right away.
What I meant was simply that the big composers are heavily exposed to people through movies and other chance encounters. I've heard a lot of Mozart, Beethoven, Vivaldi, etc. through the years, but never been captured by it enough to want to seek it out. It is only in recent years that I've realized that some of the less well known composers are more interesting.
Good music doesn't get worn out at all. I'm just saying what I mean poorly. I haven't worn Mozart and Company out, I've just been exposed to them indirectly to such a degree that it coloured my expectation of what classical music is.
