"over the years the software/screen will get outdated."

This is what they WANT. They want you to buy a new one! It's planned obsolescence only without getting dinged on reliability ratings....

From what I understand, all the electronics going wrong actually dings their reliability ratings considerably. Even minor things like little bugs and software hiccups are considered bad for reliability ratings.
