Sorry, I pay for Netflix.
I am not paying multiple suppliers.
I don't subscribe to music services, Radio is free. I don't "rent" my music from iTunes, I buy CDs, everyone can go out of business, but my CDs will still play fine.
I also don't rent software.
Rubbish. When you are paying hundreds of thousands per year to top talent, you buy them what ever they are the most productive on.
Add on floor space, support staff, etc etc the cost can add up to be hundreds (even thousands) of dollars per hour to have that top talent
At that cost if you can save them just 1 minute per day by supplying them the computer and software they need, the computing costs work out to be zero over 4 years, paid for well and truely by time savings.
I work in a University.
Macs are used in Chemistry, Physics , Microbiology , Genetics , Bioinformatics, Statistics, Mathematics, Engineering, Computer science, Veterinary , etc etc etc.
But then again we have Linux, Windows too when wanted/required.
BOTH contain spyware. The US has a long history of doing the things they accuse china of, and they do it to their so called allies just as quick.
So now you look at who is being the bigger asshole.....and currently that is the USA.
Oy... its the Aussies who are the sheep fuckers, lets look at things. Koalas has stds...... They sing about tying a kangaroo down, bestiality and bondage.
Oh wait, the rest of the world kept hearing "USA First" from Trump...... problem is the rest of the world said FU and said "USA last", so Trump has managed to piss off the 96% of the worlds population that does not live in the USA.
China on the other hand has been negotiating and signing trade agreements with the rest of the world, while Humpty Trumpty has been tearing them up.
Now if the RIAA found someone with 500 million illegal downloads there would have been TRILLIONS to pay and lengthy prison sentences
I doubt there would be enough money in the USA to pay for the 3 Billion Users data by RIAA accounting .
Correction they CURRENTLY do a $ for a £.
The US population is 4% of the worlds population. I really doubt Apple would impose a "tariff" on the rest of the world simply because the US government has imposed one on the USA bound products.
Its also looking more and more likely that Trump will be a 1 term president (if he even finishes the first term) , no company is going to spend billions in building factories in the USA when they can simply ride out the next 2 years.
How dare you use facts.
The USA only excelled in
Needlessly spending so much on the military
Putting people in prison
School shootings
Everything else , you know the important stuff the USA is rarely in the top 10
Capitalism, democracy, education, health outcomes, social mobility, etc etc etc etc
I suggest you go look at Nasa and their voyager space probes. These things are in a hostile environment, but were engineered to last.
Voyager 2 is currently 35 years old.
My TRS-80 from the late 1970's is also working just fine.
Engineering is all about which compromises you are willing to make.
The prisons require at least 3 shifts of staff.
Staff numbers per prisoner need to be high enough for safety.
Prisons just cost a LOT to build, maintain, and run.
And then there are the demands to lock people up for longer to "teach them good".
So they same people who begrudge anyone a liveable benefit seems happy to pay 5 times the amount to lock people up.
And this is in addition to all the other social issues and costs that causes (fatherless children, etc et etc etc)
And yet I bet you are one of those that keeps demanding longer prison sentences for lower levels of crime.
That approach costs the tax payers 5 times what welfare would.
And then you also ignore economic theory which demands a certain level of unemployment, too much unemployment negatively impacts the economy and drives down wages, too little unemployment drives up wages and also harms the economy.
Of course while Apple continues to charge outrageous prices for larger SSDs , people will opt for smaller cheaper machines.
This encourages users to pay a few $$ a month for larger iCloud Storage
Newbie Russian hacker, he thought voltage machine was the same as voting machine.

A pirated music track is worth thousands of dollars each, you as a person are worth $0.25
What a joke.
I would suggest that people go copyright their lives, then and only then will they have value.

Any price increases will only impact the USA, the rest of the world will continue with no changes.

The USA seems to be ripping up treaties and trade deals too. The USA is hardly to be trusted either.
Walls... bugger walls, according to the great orange oompaloompa in the Whitehouse the most effective thing is Wind Turbines.

Oh, let me see....all those people who can not afford medical care in the USA and die ?
How about all those lives wrecked because for profit prisons rely on large numbers of prisoners
How about the hundreds of thousands killed in war zones because of oil.
How about the poison in water supplies caused by fracking
Their new laptops are AMAZING.
Every time you feed it some data, the laptop races off to the toilet to vomit.
I Think they are going to call this the Applerexia. The Pro model comes with a "Beats dieting Pill" for less than sound ideas.
AND...paid for by the tax payer.

right up until you get to the point where it is significantly cheaper to give these families a UBI rather than have any of them end up in prison.
