Why do we need a room?

Time for a silly question. Since I have rebuilt my listening room, my set sounds like a million bucks. When we discuss rooms and acoustics it is alway about how the room interferes with the music. However....I have not tried this....but if I imagine my stereo outside, I think it will sound like eh...you know...manure. Mmm... it seems I have two sitly questions. Is this true (about the outside being a bad acoustical place for high end) and what does a room do well in order that we can enjoy our music so much?

 Well, music is recorded in an enclosed enviornment the majority of the time. So I would think the room relates in that aspect acoustically.
