Well, if nothing else, the influencer / celeb culture will make it so. Apple, unlike other tech companies, almost has a monopolistic grip over it.
I mean, they sold AirPods for the most ridiculous price and yet they beat sales numbers of just about everyone in the audio industry.
This, still?
Do people like you think that people like me buy AirPods because influencers do?
Might it just be that they’re astonishingly good wireless headphones? I mean is that possible in your mind?
The product may be good, but I am talking about its price, and how it sold like hot cakes anyway. Consumer goods don't sell as much without marketing, which influencers / celebs provide for free to Apple.
