    Something I really dislike about modern consumer products is that companies simply don’t care if their decisions leave their customers embittered and feeling negatively about their decisions. It seems like that used to be a salient factor in how firms designed, sold and pitched their wares.

      It's because they are monopolists. Copyrights are monopolies, and copyright holders are monopolists.

      Abolish copyright and I guarantee they will completely change their attitude.

        Copyright is the cancer of the human culture. Always has been.
