I spent well over a month talking to investors to get the actual data behind what’s happening to the games industry. I was going to say “enjoy!” but it’s, uh, not great.

To be fair, for most of those other mediums don't need as much time to consume. An old song takes a few minutes to listen to and a movie can be watched in a couple hours, but I have played thousands of hours of Minecraft (and will continue playing it for the foreseeable future).

Most will listen to songs a great many times, and movies get rewatched too, books reread. I get where you're coming from though.
