The problem with the Epstein stuff is that it is, ultimately, all inside baseball. Maybe your podcast of choice has been screaming "Give Us The List!" for years, but it's still just entertainment for an audience.
Materially, none of this matters to the bulk of the population. It isn't that people are buying it. They just have bigger issues in their lives than knowing which celebrities are kiddie diddlers.
