Content never really dies, it’s just recycled to lower and lower tiers.

    This is referred to as “downcycling”, and isn’t limited to content. It happens with lots of stuff.

    It’s actually quite common, and, usually, a good way to extend the life of things rather than just throwing them away.

      It’s disappointing that the trend is downward. I wanted to type “nuh-uh!” but I’m having trouble thinking of counter examples. Sad.

    Or does content only die when it’s recycled for the last time?

    Good original content is incredibly difficult to create. Remixing existing content is an important part of this process.

    Get over your own mortality. It’s okay, it happens to everyone. We all want to last forever.
