In general, I have hoped for material that reaches  the level of good quality-but never greatness.  Actually, over the years even good quality seemed to get harder and harder to find.

Agreed.  Quality is around, but it finds only a limited audience.  Mediocre is much more successful.

That's more like what I think. It's up to us to appreciate and support quality. If more of us do it, then the mediocre will still be around and sell well, but it just won't matter. The quality around will grow.
