Glad I'm stocked on memory cards that should last me for a while.
There is, however, a bigger problem that's not addressed - manufacturers seemingly only playing nice to big corporations while screwing the end customer.
It's mask off time for capitalism. Business to person sales are no longer lucrative. All the money is in company to company now. See AI companies buying out entire present and future stock of PC parts until 2030. Regular people are no longer needed in this form of society. That's why the market goes up while job numbers and employment go down. The economy can now support itself without anyone else.
And now that they've had this incredible windfall, this is what they'll expect from now on.
That kind of thinking has ruined lots of businesses, like the movie business. Titanic made ridiculous money, so now that's all anyone wants to invest in. Why put your money in a smaller project that will make millions, when you can our the same money in a project that will make billions?
So great small movies never get made, while there are tons of crappy expensive movies instead, because the only real consideration was about the profit, never the art.
