I agree with the memory thing. In that sense I agree with you that long-term A/B tests (blind or sighted) are always going to be subject to fading memory. But your long-term test of "am I really enjoying this or is it annoying me" is still possible blind! And you could do this for several sources blind and compare notes. (I am not arguing this would be convenient or practical, just that it would be way more reliable than the equivalent sighted listening.)
