^^ I get what you’re saying, but isn’t this just the nature of technology? What’s the rule about the speed of the cpu doubling every 18 months or so?
The tech industry is highly competitive, so naturally companies either innovate or die. Their shareholders would rightly demand nothing less. I think striking the proper balance between serving customers of old and new products is probably a tricky proposition. That said, I don’t think a business model that entices people to fall out of love with their old devices is a bad thing - it’s what has made Apple one of the most successful businesses in the world.
