Your response completely avoids (evades?) addressing and / or answering the question asked, instead simply making a lame "era" reference so I'll try again, one last time: How and why does THE INDUSTRY have any responsibility to provide an "orderly exit" from a product purchase freely and voluntarily made by a buyer, with buyer's full knowledge that the product was not going to be "returnable" years later when unwanted or inconvenient? How and why should a buyer have no personal responsibility or accountability to find a willing new owner entirely on their own for a product which they freely and voluntarily CHOSE to purchase and use --- maybe for years, or for a decade, or even longer? Try "returning" a car, house or refrigerator to the seller after CHOOSING to buy it and then using it for years before deciding you don't want it any more. Good luck with that too.
