In Reply to: Why do they discontinue successful...... posted by Bill the K on April 7, 2021 at 03:51:24:
For large companies When sales plateau, they need a new product to hype and send through the review cycle. They tend to tweak something, put a new name or number on the front and charge more.
Sometimes it's new and better but not always. Sometimes it's meeting the needs of the current demand or hype.
I have found a number of products over the years where the older version sounded better or was better than the new model.
