The last part of your comment, that's the truth right there. These aren't first time gamers, these are people too lazy to think for themselves. It's a common problem with kids these days. It's not that videogames is spoiling them, it's the Internet is spoiling them. Lazy kids.

Yeah, that's definitely a significant part of it. There is definitely an amount of laziness.

I think another part of it might be that people are so used to online shopping now, especially those who are younger, that the idea of going to a brick and mortar store to demo something before purchasing doesn't even enter their minds. I often find myself recommending people demo audio equipment before purchasing if they are planning to invest a decent amount of money (something insanely easy to do in that hobby).
