I dunno about that. The printing press changed a whole lot about what got written (people started with novels, not just bibles, clerical records and romances for posh ladies) and I think we can all admit that the electric guitar changed music quite a lot (can't imagine a 1930s Status Quo). If you mean that people require a greater understanding of the technology to operate it now you might have a point, and I agree that the pace has certainly speeded up, but neithe of those were just easier ways of doing older things.
