   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 the lack of competition. They know you're not going to stop paying them.

         There's always competition for the consumer dollar, unless you are the only business selling necessities for survival such as electricity, gas, food, and such.
