Steve Jobs's Apple liked to deprecate the whole API underpinning their OS from version to version. That and "upgrade" products with increasingly inferior versions (Final Cut, iTunes, XServe).

And then there's any era of Apple and their habit of removing consumer choice and forcing customers more into their closed ecosystem.

Can you provide some examples? The years of supports for things like Carbon are hard to reconcile with that claim.
