Depending on the media you chose to focus, you have from decades to centuries of works to go through.
Hell, if I was to go through my whole queue list I would probably need two lifetimes, maybe more, at the rate I consume those things.
Likely I will be disconnected from contemporary mainstream culture. I am not convinced I am missing anything worthwhile.
