The reference was to new gear and new media both.

New gear usually needs time to marinate before it gets some hacking freedom.

New media is best ignored -- if you are always waiting with baited breath for 'the next new thing (TM)' they already have you and you will pay happily.

I personally ignore all new content and the odd time I want to see what's new there is more than enough waiting for me to download...

I'm not consuming every new song or film as they are released or even within a year of release because that is a waste of your attention and it's controlling you like a dog begging for treats.

The intention of the comment was -- if you just can't wait.. then pay your master. Seems you made your choice.
