Oh its definitely rent seeking. They are trying to eek out more money from customers without adding additional value. Headphone jacks, no SD card for storage, no charger blocks, no ability to add music to your device without a windows or Mac computer, etc.... We can go on and on and won't agree so we do not need to continue to discuss this. No they are not forcing you, but they are absolutely rent seeking. (everyone is these days).
