Curiously, I found that the better I got, the less movies I actually watched. It became more about collecting than engaging.
I think this is a corollary to your point: vastly increasing access and reducing our objects of desire to a standardized neatly storable form can easily divert us into hoarding behavior, to the detriment of actual engagement with what’s being hoarded.
Have you considered setting up "Ersatz TV" and then configuring dozens of movie channels to never watch?
Ditto with the women who like them.
You can, after all, delete all the other games from your emulator, or your entire data hoard except one document etc. Somehow that doesn't seem appealing either, does it?
Ending a lot of sentences with a question here I know, but I honestly don't think I've got this figured out.
