To this mind, the essence of your post is the futility of trying to keep up with the latest "improvements" which you paint as a plot to trap the innocent.First up this is not unique to audio & video. If you want to keep up with computer technology you would change your system every month as a new gizmo or upgraded program (meaning different, not fewer bugs) appeared. Newer model cars appear regularly, .... the list goes on and on
Competition -> improved or changed products. If anyone is silly enough to always want to have leading edge technology or the latest & greatest of anything then they will pay dearly for it.
Rat race? Only if you choose to participate.
