So in other words, at the outset far more than 10% of material is interesting and the amount of material you find interesting decreases with exposure?

I've been watching anime regularly since 2005 and currently running shows since 2007. My "hit" rate is still way above 10%. I run out of free time before I run out of interest, and I can't see that ever changing because the list of non-anime related things I want to do means even if I were suddenly have tons of free time, my anime consumption wouldn't rise enough to change that. In other words, a state in which something is "90% crap" is a theoretical state that I am unlikely to ever achieve because I'm not going to be consuming enough to break out of the default state. I get the impression this is true of many of my friends as well.

(TL;DR: one may tend towards considering 90% of a genre crap over time, but many people aren't going to reach that point.)
