For me it is definitely the latter. Quality has always been my gauge to measure how good a piece of media is. I'm mostly open to all genres of media (the only exception being music which I'm really choosy about), but I drop them easily if they start to bore me. I do give second/third chances in hopes that there is still something to salvage...though I do that very selectively.

Genuinely curious to know. To one person it might be a question of morality, to another it is a question of quality.
