Depends on how you look at it. I remember the time when the concept of playing games from CDs over floppy disks and cartridges came over, like on consoles and PCs.
"WTF you can play games from CDs, but aren't they like for playing music?!"
And also when DVDs first came out people were like what the hell, buy all my favourites again but now all on DVD?!? The quality isn't that much better anyway, I'll stick with my VHS tapes ta very much.
How great a skill hindsight is.
