[ohm it hertz]

Somewhat relevant... This happened 15 years ago to the video game industry when the consoles became dependant on software updates to function. You can play Pong or Mario in literally seconds of booting up, but today's games can have you waiting an hour for software updates. This slowly manifested itself as a normal process just to use the product, and consumers just accepted it for the improvements each update brought. I left the hobby when you needed to lease the right to use the service quarterly or monthly.

It seems vehicles are next?
