Do top sellers (with 1,000+ downloads) still get regular downloads?

Hi everyone,
I've noticed that some top-sellers files on Adobe Stock have over 1,000 downloads — some even above 100,000. I’m really curious to know if those files still get regular downloads, or if most of those downloads happened in the past.

Do older bestsellers keep performing consistently, or do they slow down over time?

I’m just asking to satisfy my curiosity and understand how things work for high-performing files.
Would really appreciate any insight from experienced contributors!

Thanks in advance.

I have a handful of assets that have been downloaded hundreds of times each, but the rate of downloads has slowed down. I suppose Buyers are looking for newer, perhaps undiscovered content and don't want to risk using a stock asset in their advertising or on their website that has already been used by hundreds of designers. After all, they often want it to look like the content was created exclusively by and for their project.

I think it varies by content, trends and seasonal activity.
