>Casual passive consumption of video benefits from being able to fit in between other activities easily

The same was said of video vs. reading. “I’m never going to want a video experience, it doesn’t fit in between other activities as well as reading a page of something.”

To be honest, I still feel this way. I can't stand when content is only available in video format. Give me text!
I feel this way when I click on a news article and it's actually a video with a headline.
Sure, but plenty of people still browse Reddit or Instagram (or HackerNews), listen to podcasts, etc.

There is a middle ground between "AR will never take off as an entertainment medium" and "AR will kill video/images/text."
