Your post reminds me of Planned Obsolescence. That is the prerogative of the Manufacturers, giving them power over the Consumers. My conclusion is that anything a lowly Consumer can do to keep from being steamrolled over by Manufacturers is his right. Corporations are probably an American thing, because America is still stuck in the Wild West days.
