Apple has
created a multibillion dollar corporation. Many people have gone out and have
purchased an IPod, IPhone, IPad, or a Mac computer. People believe that Apple is the best product
out there. As the past own of 4 IPod’s and a Mac Book, I can easily say that
Apple is just overrated. My first IPod failed to live through the three year
warranty. Within two years and a half, my IPod played its last song and no
longer turned on. I received a new one that unfortunately only lasted six
months, until the hard drive gave out. Either one button or some part breaks,
so clearly Apple products are not very durable. People are lucky if their product
last more than two years without having to fix something. Apple has become a
company that has focused on the continual sell of their products and less on
the quality of their product.
And the consumers, like good idiots, allow these
billion dollar corporations to sell them an overpriced product that is not even
worth the price. The consumer goes out and spends $300 to $1,000 every year or
two, just on replacing their broken product. Aside from the poor quality of the
Apple products, the Apple Corporation ensures that its product is constantly
sold. This is done so by preventing more memory to be added to the product. If
you buy an 8GB IPod, that is all you have of space, you cannot add more. If you
need more space then you are forced to spend an extra hundred in order to get a
16 GB. Many products such as the Samsung Galaxy Player, allows you to add a memory
card of up to 32 GB.
So if the Apple products are not the best product out
there then why does everyone buy them? Well ignorance is only part of it. Many
times it is the ignorance of not wanting to buy a different product even after
you know Apple is not reliable. The good idiots of this world allow these
billion dollar corporations to take their hard earn money and give them a
useless product. A part of the reason is that people do not care how much they
spend because often times they buy those products with money from Welfare or
some type of government aid. They use the taxpayers’ hard earned money to waste
it on Apple products, yet that is only a small reason. The main reason people
continue to buy Apple products while knowing they are unreliable, is simply arrogance.
The arrogance of owning the product everyone else has. This arrogance is the
need to brag to the world that they can afford to buy an Apple product. That is
the reason why Apple has made so much money, because of arrogance.
