What about, say, studying for an hour a half a day? Would that be not so different from binging any cultural product? If there is a difference, then what is it

  Do you mean specifically studying literature (in this case the books themselves, and their authors/period etc.) or trying to acquire knowledge from a scientific work? In any case, I don't think that rushing the process is helpful, it might depends on individual factors. I used to read very quickly as a teen, a trick to impress friends or to skim through boring books. I did not find it enjoyable, at all. The nicest part about reading (for me) is the thinking part, when I stop reading and reflect on an interesting/surprising idea, taking the time to write mental or literal notes.

    You're saying rushing. But where is the rush here? An hour a half a day. That leaves more than enough time to stop and reflect and go for a walk and write notes.

      One hour a day is not binging then…
