Decent fonts don't get tired out.

I wouldn't call Verdana and Georgia 'decent', just not terrible, like Arial and Times New Roman.
But tastes also change.
And some fonts didn't make the transition from metal to digital very well. Centaur is a good example of that, the digital version coming from the font matrix rather than from the way it looked when impressed into the rag of the paper. One big publisher proudly does all of its books in it and remains blind to the need to recommission its digitisation, as happened with Bembo (poor in digital) when Bembo Book (as letterpress Bembo looks) was created.
