There definitely is. The other component is not worth the time. I am the first one to admit that I have bought digital games that I have never played and absolutely would not want to store. Usually they are part of Humble Bundles but not exclusively. However, I have also bought physical games that I never opened either. I'm proud of neither.

edit: I think music is the only thing I have never bought and then never used. I've definitely done it with books, movies, and games both physical and digital.

I've done it with all of the above as well, but I think it's nearly always due to a sale. If I know I want something at some point in the future and there's a great deal on it at the present then I don't see too much wrong with picking it up and keeping it until I get around to it.

I can't think of anything I've bought at full price that I haven't gone on to play/read/watch shortly thereafter.

I agree with that, and it could be the fourth dimension of what buttplant was mentioning. If you will only buy it on sale, do you really want/need it?

I almost almost finish day one purchases, but I suspect my completion rate falls off a cliff the longer I wait to buy something.

I only buy things on sale, but it's because I have such a daunting backlog that I know I won't play anything until years after it comes out.

People go on and on about how great "at my finger tips" us and yet most of us check the same 4 websites instead. 99.999% if people weren't readying Plato because there just wasn't enough time in the day without using a phone or similar to read it during a shit.

Reading a Kindle is a LOT easier on a full subway than a dead tree book. I've read a lot because of it. Also when it's time for a new book it's nice to read a few pages of a few and see what I get into.

You probably read trash. And if you don't, you're an exception.

What's it to you?

Maybe he just wants to read ABOUT Trash.

What's the status of dead tree. Books to him? Why can't you follow a conversation?

If someone is going to praise something over something else and participate in destroying an industry, they should be doing something worth while. Not reading the DaVinci code and dragon Lance books on their kindle. Or worse, claiming they read 100s of books on their gadget of choice when they really just reload facebook and twitter all day and they haven't read a book since the last harry potter.

You really can't read facebook on a Kindle. Are you sure you know what you're talking about?
