Reminds me of social media utopianism at the beginning of the blog era. More communication is better, more connections are better, and it gave is this world. So no, cheaper and more widely available is not always better.

Yes, so much this. And one of your links mentions 1998s movie "The Wedding Singer" with Adam Sandler, a soundtrack full of 80s-hits and a very old Billy Idol in a guest role at the end. This was about the start of the 80s-nostalgi
