Nassim Nicholas Taleb's "Lindy" filter is instructive here. Age is a pretty good filter, so it's just overwhelmingly likely that an old book that's stuck around is going to be better than something newer.
This is why I say right now books are across the board a better idea than blogposts or videos, but I'm not 100% certain that can't change? Some kind of Wikipedia esque filter could perhaps accelerate this?
