Albums - scientifically how many times can you listen to a CD before pleasure turns to pain?

Whilst listening to the Libertines (Decadent youth screaming in your lugholes and making ears at your heart), I thought I like this. But the past tells me it probably won’t be top ten in my heart for long. Which made me ponder -
Question:

How many times can you listen to an album before you start getting bored of it? Is it a normal distribution curve? And whatever the curve is it related to the complexity of the music, the je ne sais quoi of the album?

What is the formula for how many times can you listen to an album before pleasure turns to pain?

if x= number of listens and q = some quality in the music then y (pleasure) is
y=x*q

Has anyone worked this out?

Any suggestions, please help, it’s driving me crazy.
