Woes of a Consumer When There is Upgradation

Upgradation is not always a blessing

I have a Sony Cyber shot DSC H50 camera which I had bought a few years ago. I have great moments with it as I am a passionate photographer. A few days ago the memory stick stopped working and I had go in for a new one. The original memory stick was 1GB. That is no more available. I went in for the 4GB memory stick. I can take great photos using this memory stick. But I cannot transfer the photos in my pc with card readers.

The issue is with the card reader. No card reader is compatible with this particular  memory stick.I had no problem with the old memory stick.  I am now supposed to go for a USB CABLE. The fact of the matter is Sony has countless models in cameras and every model has a different USB cable. I searched online but I can only find this product that fits  that will take over a month for delivery.

I am too attached to my camera as I have spent great moments with it. I am in two minds now. Should I go for a mobile that delivers or wait for one month for the delivery of the USB cable that is compatible with the memory stick.

I fail to understand why manufacturers do this to their consumers. .

Upgradation is here to stay with no spare parts available for the oldere models be their refrigerators, computers, mobiles the works. Companies involved in manufacturing these items can stay in business only if they have something new to offer. Understandable. But why not have stocks of parts that are needed to repair old modesl is a question that needs a serious answer.

The loads of items that are out of commission because of no parts being available is a matter for concern as this garbage is not biodegradable. Hope the powers that be get a bit more involved and make rules to see that spare parts care made available.

    • Yes, my friend they do so knowingly so that they could sell their products they knowingly disappear old electronic spare parts. Thus The camera owner or mobile owner...could buy a new one. It is business technique to sell product.

      If they do not do so who buy their new products? That is why they upgrade all electronics to upset the buyers because they know that so and so ting is the weakness of costumers.
