I see that argument made a lot in this thread. Yet that's bypassing the question.

Otherwise the best time to be a reader is now, best time to be a movie watcher is now, best time to be an art lover is now, best time to be a music lover is now, best time to be a collector is now. Every creative industry you have access to all older created stuff. That doesn't make now the golden age for any of those creative industries.

So that argument just renders the question moot.

Well indeed I would answer "yes" to most of your questions lol, except maybe to be a music fan because some artists are no longer alive or doing concerts, hence you can't see them live and being able to see artists live still the most important aspect of being a music fan for me 

I think the wording here is key. You are thinking in "what is the time more quality production was released", but in reality doesn't really matter if you still have acess to old stuff 

The best time to be a cinema fan is of course today. Even if I lost the original exhibition of great movies in theaters (theaters are the best way to experience true cinema, streaming sucks) that are endless retro sessions for classic movies and festivals dedicated to old movies. Considering you live in a big city like I do, but if you live in a small city the odds are you missed lots of great movie regardless of the time anyway. Does it mean this is the best period for cinema? No, but it's indeed the best time to be a cinephile
