"We consumers"? Please stop including everyone in your diatribes. Not everyone is asking, nor feels, that they are being "taken for a ride" at all.

Some of us understand the tradeoffs/benefits of what companies are offering, and purchase accordingly.

It isn't just marketing, and it isn't nonsense. We all have different needs for what we want our products to provide for. Apple provides products for just one subset of consumers. And most customer satisfaction polls seem to indicate that their users are happy with their products.
