I miss the shared culture that broadcast TV and radio gave us. Is the selection today better, with more, higher quality content? Definitely.
But all of us Millenials can quote Simpsons at each other all day even if we've never met. South park, Futurama, King of the Hill, James Bond and other corny action movies. We all saw them so many times, because that's what was on.
That shared culture is worth more than the content actually being good, IMO. Half the time now someone will ask if you've seen a show and you haven't ever heard of it.
