And we wonder why the environment is going to crap. They're basically turning perfectly still useable speakers into paperweights, and bricking the rest of your system for any updates until you replace them in your ecosystem. What a terrible message to their consumers. What happens to these older speakers? They just get thrown out and contribute to even more waste.
I'm still running my dad's speakers that he bought back in 1999 and gave me last year because he finally upgraded. Still sounds awesome, and I'll probably be running them for the next 20 years unless they break (or my dad gives me his new, even better speakers lol).
