This has always been true of software, particularly games. You can get a 5-6 year old game for a fraction of the price, and run it on modest hardware. But the industry wont sit on its hands for 5 years, there will be newer software that requires better hardware.

Technology doesn't always work like that.

A new game is a totally new world with everything created from scratch. A creation. A model, on the other hand, is a reinterpretation machine for hundreds of years of human creations, but not a creation in itself, more like a discovery.

You would think that by now we would have a much better Bitcoin that's taking over the payment networks of the world but what we actually got is a shitload of shitcoin.
