So long back when internet was rare and expensive, sms would cost per message, there would be fewer messages and mostly from people who one could reply to. And then in time of abundance when they get generated and forwarded in bulk I see that they get deleted in same fashion.
I think same will happen with AI once we get tons of autogenerated TV shows and movies watching 3 min of 40 min show or 5 min of 2 hr movie would become common. People would bulk delete unwatched movies/shows and other material from queue without ever playing it. Or maybe by then person entertainment AI bot would be tasked with processing 5000 hour worth of media every week and summarize it to owners.
The idea that 5 million dollar movie would generate 500 million dollar revenue would be hilarious just from plain economic analysis.

Dishwashers washed tedious dishes for you, thus saving you the bother of washing them yourself, video recorders watched tedious television for you, thus saving you the bother of looking at it yourself; Electric Monks believed things for you, thus saving you what was becoming an increasingly onerous task, that of believing all the things the world expected you to believe. - Douglas Adams, Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency
