I started listen to jpop in 2004 and I'm still into japanese music but it's not "my everything" like it used to be when jpop as a genre was still new to me.
I think it's normal that people's taste in music is changing and there might be some big changes in life that might affect as well (like getting job or having a baby for example).
Also some jpop stars that I used to listen are now middle-aged and they don't release new material very often.
My personal experience is that if you have such a feeling try to stay open-minded and give a chance to some new artists. Don't listen something compulsively: you're not a bad fan if you don't like every release. Let's remember that music is supposed to bring joy and comfort.
And speaking of AHS or any other forum I think this kind of discussion platform is getting old, when people are able to communicate more quickly and easily using apps like WhatsApp and facebook. In agreement with members of one finnish forum, we decided to set up a group on facebook. In that way, we are trying to revive the discussion.
