    No one is pointing out that this was inevitable result of having more options.

    When I was a kid, sure we had TV and video games, but they weren’t much. There was no big library, all the better graphics games were recent, and realistically you got a few games a year.

    Me and my friends went to the movies cause there honestly wasn’t much better things to do. Having a home theatre meant having a tiny screen and a handful of movies you’ve seen many times if you happen to have a VCR. TV reruns were super old and had 5 mins of ads every 15 mins.

    Did they really expect teenagers to be desperate to see a new flic when it’s no longer the only way to see new content?
