My GoPro 2 is still going quite strong, despite having hit the asphalt on at last two occasions at high speed (well, high for a bicycle) due to their plastic mounts breaking. I switched to a third-party, metal mount, and haven't looked back.

So perhaps the issue is that they made a good product that never needs replacing. Is 4K recording a large enough draw? What is the saturation of 4K TVs so far? Could all contribute.
