What are you talking about. This whole situation is a one great counterexample to your 1).
Making any company a single point of failure is a bad idea. You are basically giving up your freedom of choice for maybe some convenience, but don't confuse it with guarantee of sustained service.
- MichaelApproved 7y agoI'm talking about buying a single brand of product. Not buying things that are compatible with that brand, buying specifically just that brand.
- TeMPOraL 7y agoAgain, unless that company has a great track record, you'll probably get screwed rather quickly. Google is not such company, for example. Also, any startup is out of the question too; half-life of VC-backed SaaSes is on the order of a year or two. IMO buying any hardware tied to a SaaS is a dumb idea.
