    If you look at old silent movies, they were played at different speeds in different cinemas and projections. There wasn’t a standard way to play a movie, no “you NEED to play the movie at this specific speed or it will be ruined”. I’m not saying the same should apply to modern movies, but I find it interesting.

      I imagine in a few decades we might have AI media. You could read a web novel with a fewer or a lot of pictures, or read it as a manhwa / webtoon, or as an anime, or as a virtual reality 3D experience that is semi-interactive. And you could give instructions to shorten or expand it, or even diverge in the plot a little, or change the characters. More like the holodeck with a VR headset.

          Maybe more like someone reading you a book while you can ask questions or give feedback. And maybe instead of just watching pictures / illustrations, you could also describe your own imagination more detailed or give some rough sketches and create your own illustrations to the text. Like a modding feature for books and you can share the mods with other readers.
