A friend once recommended a video game and when I asked if it was worth the price he said it was "a solid 100 hours of gameplay". There's definitely an alternative framing for entertainment. My friend gladly traded $60 for something that promised to take 100 hours. If it only took 50 hours, he would have found it less valuable.
