Yes, everyone is get bored to favorite songs. When we have a favorite song, we repeat to listen the song many times. So we are get bored. Simple. Very simple mechanism. Everyone will get bored to favorite songs. So I decided to make my own music player. If using this tool, we will not get bored to our favorite songs forever! How? There is a hint in our everyday life. I'm japanese. I eat rice everyday. Many japanese eat rice everyday. But we are not get bored to rice. Why? We change the flavor by using "Furikake". "Furikake" is seasoning for rice. By using "Furikake", we are not get bored to rice. So, if I can make "Furikake" for listening songs, we will not get bored to favorite songs.
