I think there would have been a big difference in response if it were during the evening rush hour when people are not in such a hurry to get home. I think the demographic of the metro stop he was serving was a lot of 9-5 workers who need to be at work at a certain time, as described by the guy who only had "3 minutes to spare" to listen.

Also, since it was a pretty narrow demographic, if he played during rush hour in NYC, he probably would have fared better, since there would be more people who aren't trying to get into the office at a precise time.

He also probably would have made more money if he was playing on a platform where people are almost forced to listen for a few minutes while waiting for the train.
