There is the element of the throwaway society but I think there is another view that Pavel did touch on.

Just thinking of my shelves (games and books) there are a load already that I haven't got round to reading/playing. I enjoy re-reading a lot (as a reminder of a story that's partly faded from memory and a repeat of an enjoyable experience with new insights) but maybe I should also spend more time finding out if there are new equally enjoyable experiences waiting to be had, It's not even like I'd have to go out and spend to do it. A ton of new experiences are just sitting there waiting for me. I don't expect them all to be good (and I'll always go back to the things I really enjoy) but there could just be an exciting new favourite there waiting to be discovered.
