I blame them both. Neither can do it without the other.

I agree it's both but they can do it without the other. Remember when all those copies of the ET videogame were dumped in a whole? It's a weird example but they often create a lot of product that's never sold. Likewise consumers will be extremely wasteful and fickle. Like how people won't buy ugly fruits and veggies so instead ugly carrots are cut into baby carrots.

No but I assume there was never an ET 2?

I promise there's more corporate waste nobody purched it's not a stretch.

Of course it is. Corporations don't throw money away producing things they know people won't buy.

[–] Chriswild@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

They do all the time actually. You need more product than you will sell basically always.

[–] helenslunch@feddit.nl -2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Wrong again. They stock more product than they think they will sell in case they underestimate demand.
