"Products don't last as long as they used to" or
"Quality used to mean more in the past"?
You may have a point. Companies often design their products
with an 'expiration date' in mind. Planned obsolescence is the

replaced. This may bother consumers as we are burdened with having to
continue making purchases to replace products we have already
bought.
This article goes in depth into the history, practice, and
reasons behind planned obsolescence.
