Personally, I buy protein powder even though I know the ingredients are actually too cheap to justify the price. But I’m too lazy, and the reward of a cold chocolate shake after working out makes me forget about the outrageous cost. It’s a little guilty pleasure I’ve come to terms with.

    Also you are the product from data collection, the device’s planned obsolescence/inability to be repaired, surcharges for in-iOS transactions, and so on, but I guess that’s not the exact framework of this question.

    Better. Than. Android.

    But the margins are obscene for sure.
