I am wondering two things then.
First, what makes this a scam exactly? Is Apple planning to deceive
people with this effort?
Second, based on the below, who are "most consumers," exactly? if people
do not have much choice with the bluetooth quality, then how does that
mean better quality might be a waste? A consumer may be feeling
powerless to get anything better, which does not mean they might not want
something better.
Just my thoughts,
Kare

True,
but for the majority of consumers, bluetooth is good enough. High end audio is
just wasted on many people.

Hi!
Possibly.
But bluetooth is not as good quality as airplay if you’re not using the atpx
protocol which apple doesn’t do.

I'm wonderring if that may be because there are so many bluetooth model devices
out there, that maybe Apple just didn't see the point.

Hi!
One thing i am concerned about is why there’s not any airplay headphones around
yet?

I’m afraid I just can’t quite bring myself to be sufficiently moved. I don’t
like planned obsolescence or proprietary standards either, but I’m also in the
market for a new pair of travel headphones, and I actually would love a digital
path between my iPhone and my headset. I was not among those poor souls hurt
by the 30-pin to Lightning transition, because I was not quite so silly as to
buy expensive equipment with that connector. And, yes, electronic waste is a
terrible, terrible thing, but I doubt Apple will fail to provide a transition
for users of the 3.5-mm plug. I know it’s painful, but we do need to move
forward.
