Your splitting hairs and have missed the point. Yes, you buy the phone and you pay to use someones network to make calls, and it has said features. If you want an app you pay for it. if it comes with the app at said price, they should not be charging 2 yrs later and making your phone have less features that you paid for originally with that app. BTW BMW was charging to use YOUR heated seats that YOU paid for. Air conditioning is not far away. Toyota was making owners pay monthly to remote start THEIR truck with a feature they paid for. We are not renting these vehicles...we own them. My Mercedes has lane keep, distronic cruise, auto stop, ect....which were features when buying the car. Doesnt cost a penny driving down the road. They will push as far as they can. If you accept it, there will more of it. Bmw backed up and so is Toyota...because people were "outraged". Yet GM thinks after people make a car payment, and maintenance plus fuel per month...they want to pay up 114 dollars for features and apps..........I wonder why millennials use Uber and think older people are nuts for owning cars they cant drive 24 hours a day?? My millennial neighbor, great kid, thinks its nuts to pay for 100% of a car that you only use infrequently. Said he'd rather rent a truck for the roadtrip, or take an Uber...its cheaper!! I almost agree with him. But then there is the freedom part of that scenario. No need to be condescending with your "outraged" and "new to tech" comments...thats classless. You can give a viewpoint and disagree easily yet you chose otherwise.
