I don’t think manufacturers are trying to achieve planned obsolescence. Rather I think they are trying to get in on that cheap internet services money they are being left out of. There’s lots of money being left on the table from having a foothold in a consumer’s home.

They assume the quality is going to be six one way, half a dozen the other. So, your appliance has half the number of features yet only costs $200 less? It's going to get looked over. The internet makes it super easy to look it over.
