I Think that the Planned Obsolescence is something that is create with a short time of life, to manipulate and do that the consumers has that buy a new product. The people that create this products are agree with this product because this peoples are benefits with this products. The people that are not beneffits with the products planned obsolescence are consumers, because they have to buy a new one and the lost more money. In my opinion i am not agree with planned obselescence because i'm a comsumer and this affect me economically.

ReplyDelete1-Planned obsolescence is a system that involves the programming of the lifetime of a manufactured product and the manufacturer knows where when the object will no longer be used. the idea is to keep the customer tied as a means to build a series of sales outside of a transaction.
ReplyDelete2-Those in favor of this theory believe that is the art of helping clients become better, see it as something that evolves over time.
3-People who do not agree with planned obsolescence are those who care about what this system does to the environment, for example a party more worrying is the lead drummer for content which involves serious risk of lead for the environment especially to humans breathe dust because of this goal can cause serious health outcomes, also detrimental to the environment, so the board thinks the United Nations program for the Environment.
4-My personal position is that planned obsolescence is a total irony of companies sell a product or object that does not have the highest quality when you know beforehand what will be the product to sell in posterionres years, this procedure is done to sell future products at higher prices. is a method with which I disagree but so and so is capitalism works, and if it ceases to exist and would not be capitalism.

1-planned obsolescence think the concept would be better to define it: is industrial design used by a number of people grtan to plan a strategy to their advantage as they produce different things that only last for a while, so you are not guaranteed that you could take forever because that way you beneficieria the creator as you had to go back for another or maybe for something that is broken.
ReplyDelete2-for those who are in favor see this as something positive because yuda certain way to people and that leads to evolution as siempre.no will stay with the same because science advances and emerging things so best to do it for life?
3-opponents are those who have more conociemiento about this and look beyond what we can produce ourselves ... and that is that this system is destroying the environment with its high contamination
4-I think this has several points of view as this is what keeps ssistema up the progress of the companies it is the strategy used by industries to increase their capital and in a way is what keeps the high existing development , also have their drawbacks but as I always say this in the Division: one if constribuye
ReplyDelete1. Refers to a consumer product design, thinking about it all in a given time, ie longer fulfill its function, and in this way ensure the purchase of a new product and thus encourage consumption.
2. For those who favor see it as something great and positive development as it will bring the world to its highest degree and constant evolution.
3. The objective of the planned absolencia immediate economic profit is, so many people do not agree with it, because they spend over the care and respect of air, environment and therefore humans.
4. In my opinion anything that endangers life and the environment should be banned. If it is true that provides development and evolution to the world, but on the other hand destroys and fades.

1. Planned obsolescence is a industrial design is a policy of planning or designing a product with a limited useful life, so it will become obsolete, that is, unfashionable or no longer functional after a certain period of time.
ReplyDelete2. The people who think possite think that help customer much better and see that somenthing envelos over a time and it geta better every year.
3. People who think opposite said that Planned obsolescence is an artifact of the current global economic system which has goals that are opposed to long-term environmental health, and stable wealth creation and retention.
4. In mine personal opinion Planned obsolescence is the decision by a company to make consumer products in such a way that they become out-of-date or useless within a known time period. The main goal of this type of production is to ensure that consumers will have to buy the product multiple times, rather than only once.

1 - Planned obsolescence or built-in obsolescence is a product design with a small utility time becoming obsolete (old fashioned or out of time). It is made to manipulate and make consumers renew their product each pass or leave a better offer.
ReplyDelete2 - there are people who think that this theory helps humans to be better every day thanks to technology and advanced products.
3 - those who oppose it are those who know more about it than we do, let us wrap by absurd stories and just see what we like to see around us.
4 - in my opinion the big companies rely on all products coming out on the market and made for consumers who like the consuming technologies with ease.

1-Planned Obsolescence: In my opinion is when a product is built with the mindset that its going to have a limited shelve life like the "IPHONE1".
ReplyDelete2- Those in favor say that its a way in which technological companies can have the upper hand in a fast moving market by releasing more new products with "better" features so that you the consumer can spend their money on it.
3- Those who are oppose the idea say its like stealing because they are literally forcing you to buy the better product with you knowing they are going to take a new product sooner.
4- My opinion is that in a way they are taking a advantage of this but in the other hand its a good way to keep companies moving forward and making the products they sell better for their own well being.

ReplyDelete-is an industry that plans to produce multiple products of a same category with a limite useful life. FOR EXAMPLE: the company car each year produce new model cars like nissan 2013, these companies make the nissan 2010 is unfashionable, and the person wants to buy a new car . these is the planned obsolescence force people to have the better and the more technological things
-people who're in favor of planned obsolescence say that this system is the development to the world, because it help to be related more with the technology
-opponents say it is terrible assimilation using unlimited use things lacking today. this can cause environmental problems, because we are constantly buying and discarding things with limited life that at some future not serve
-my opinion is that planned obsolescence has many pros and cons because is it good for the development of technology and futuristic. but but be buying and discarding things can damage our world. although we can recycle, we need products with longer life

-Planned obsolescence in industrial design is a policy of planning or design of a product with a limited shelf life, so it will become obsolete, that is outdated or no longer functional after a certain period of time.
-Those in favor say it's better because the products are more advanced.
-It can be bad while They take new products to the market it damages the environment, because We discard what We already have for something new.
-On one hand I am to favor because they are extracting things more advanced, but for other one not because we do not recycle to be able to renew it.
1- Plabned obsolescence is when a company create a new thing but they don't put everything they know in it , So they can later create the same thing but better with more stuff ( Like apple )
ReplyDelete2-The one's in favor agree with this beacuse they say it's better for company
3-Those who are not in favor say the companies are steeling from us
4- In my point of view i say companies are steeling from us and it would be nice to have to pay for something only one time but that's how it work they need to do this in ordor to keep the company rolling for example with the iphone's people bought the iphone 3 and then they realese the 4 with new and better stuff but they didn't everything in it cuase they now realse the iphone 5 and people want to buy that's the way they make money ..

1- Planned Obsolescence is the policy of deliberately limiting the life of a product in order to encourage the purchaser to replace it.Placing sweeping tail fins on an automobile was an example of planned obsolescence.
2- People who agree with this term defended planned obsolescence as a necessary driving force behind innovation and economic growth.
3- Those who are not in favor think that continuously replacing, rather than repairing, products creates more waste, pollution, uses more natural resources, and results in more consumer spending. These people everywhere are today disobeying the law of obsolescence. They are using their old cars, their old tires, their old radios and their old clothing much longer than statisticians had expected on the basis of earlier experience.
4- I personally think that the excess-waste generated from planned obsolescence has a negative impact on human life like a decline in environmental systems due to greater pollution caused by greater resource extraction and I don't agree about this kind of business because those companies are playing with the society, they are wasting our money on purpose. Furthermore, even though I know that Planned Obsolescence helps to spread business everywhere and benefit those companies, we are the ones affected.

ReplyDelete1-Planned obsolescence is a policy of planning or designing a product with a limited useful life, it’s like limit a life a product for example if i have a product ,but this product unfashionable this product is not necessary to use.
2-The people that is agree think that is a great development because it might bring to the world a big evolution and also this product is more new and advanced.
3-But the people that is disagreement think it's bad because it can bring to the humanity impact negative, because this cause pollution, a decline of environmental due to greater waste generation and other reason can be it reduce standards of living.
4-I think, planned obsolescence is bad and hurt because the better benefit are for company since they will get us money of a form easy because is better buy a product that have a large life than a product that have less life, it would be much spending for us, and it's may be hurt because it might bring as result a decline in environmental systems due to greater pollution. So I disagree with that.

ReplyDeleteThe people that support see it as a way of improving competition and demand for products,that helps the business and economy.
The people that are not in favor think that continuously replacing, rather than repairing, products creates more waste, pollution, uses more natural resources, and results in more consumer spending.
I think that programmed obsolescence is the way that those people who are in favor (of course the big companies) get richer and healthier.I see it as a waste of resources and an investment so people buy the new product.Tottaly
Disagree with it and hope the way technology spreads somehow or someday changes.

1-planned obsolescence stimulates demand by encouraging purchasers to buy sooner if they still want a functioning product. Built-in obsolescence is used in many different products. There is, however, the potential backlash of consumers who learn that the manufacturer invested money to make the product obsolete faster; such consumers might turn to a producer (if any exists) that offers a more durable alternative.
ReplyDelete2-Those in behalf of this theory believe That is the art of helping clients Become better, see it as something timeng That evolves over goods and services. "
3-the people in this opinion accept the theory that art only help improve customers to vendors for good services
4-my opinion is that I disagree with this product because every time we do provide money to get us this time more easily for qualifying products to products that are not valid for my decision that I disagree\

1-in industrial design is a policy of planning or designing a product with a limited useful life, so it will become obsolete, that is, unfashionable or no longer functional after a certain period of time.[1] Planned obsolescence has potential benefits for a producer because to obtain continuing use of the product the consumer is under pressure to purchase again, whether from the same manufacturer (a replacement part or a newer model), or from a competitor which might also rely on planned obsolescence.
ReplyDelete2- this technology will help the customer to see the evolution of the technology and to purchase once and once again
in my personal opinion this planned obsolence method is good to make people see how the technology evolutionate and to make a little more of technology.

i think that Planned obsolescence is a business practice of deliberately out dating an item by stopping its supply or service support and introducing a newer model or version. Its objective is to prod the consumer or user to abandon the currently owned item in favor of the 'upgrade.' Most prevalent in computer hardware and software industry. Incorporating into a product features that will almost certainly go out of favor in a short time, thereby inducing the consumer to purchase a new model of the product. Placing sweeping tail fins on an automobile was an example of planned obsolescence. Eliany Fernandez, Period# 4

-People who think this is good, say it is a way to advance each time more technologically and create better products every time
-Who oppose people believe that this is a way to spend more natural resources damage the environment and to consumism
I think this is inevitable because every day the technology is advancing and every machine, device or item will be replaced by a better one, to do the same or better job in less time and less energy depending in many cases, I also believe this hurt in some way and may want to get something to avoid unnecessary use of natural resources

ReplyDelete1- Planned Obsolescence is when a product is created with the idea of having a limited life expectancy for the consumer, so that they will be encouraged to buy another product.
2- The people who support it think that this is a great way for balancing the economy through the demand and supply of certain products with a planned obsolescence, which may in fact improve technology as the product improves.
3 Those who oppose say that this brings the environment to a decay, due to the constant extraction of limited resources. Also the waste generated by those companies create an impact. And the consumer has to constantly buy, in the long term, this expensive product.
4 I think Apple has one of the greatest marketing systems in the world. Making people think that they actually need a newer, but not so different, version of the iPhone. Technology advances and we see ourselves pressured to obtain the latest. What it does to the mass media is like a drug, infecting them with a sense of competition among consumers. Also this tactic is smart, but low on the environment.
