  1. @EricAlper Yes, this is old.

    However:

    It did not have in-app purchases.

    Oh, it didn't come with #ads.

    It had no direct or indirect #expiration date where it stopped working altogether.

    It continued working even when its original #manufacturer went out of business.

    You really owned it.

    It had no dependency to the #cloud.

    There were no features that stopped working because of some remote marketing guy decided so.

    It didn't contain call-back routines to the manufacturer.

    It did not listen to its surrounding and generate #voiceprofiles for all people you meet.

    It didn't spy on its buyers and sell those voice profiles an other very personal #data to #brokers which resell to #insurances, #advertisement companies and worse.

    You could actually go to any electronic shop to get it repaired.

    It was not overpriced.

    It just played #music. It was perfect.
