Planned Obsolescence -ETCG1
Lately in the comments there’s been a lot of talk of ‘Planned Obsolescence’. The idea behind Planned Obsolescence is that a manufacturer makes a product that will only last so long in order to get the customer to come back and purchase a new product.
Many people think that auto companies participate in this practice. I disagree with this assessment and the video explains why.
I look forward to your comments on this one.
Thanks for watching!
