Bewildering. No one who runs anything knows anything. Anyone who knows anything is doing not leading.
This is exactly how post-capitalism was predicted to go. As consolidation eliminates competition, there’s no reason to maintain quality. If it’s crap or nothing, people have to buy the crap.

Bewildering? Quality is dropping so profit margins can increase.
