Default Planned Obselescence....A Good Thing?

The trouble is that there is no easy to way get a real handle on what
products on offer will last significantly longer with most appliances.

And its arguable how many really care that much about that sort of
thing now with the appliances so cheap and so trivially affordable.


When all stores sell the same items and no salesperson can convince the
consumer that any given product is better than all of the rest people will
choose the cheapest.
