We’re in a consolidation phase. The streaming market is now well established and the market shares are largely settled. In the past many services ran at a loss or without much profit to establish their market share.

According to Wikipedia the theoretical max bandwidth on the 2.4GHz bandwidth is 706,25 kbit/s downstream.
I don’t have data from Apple, but Qualcomms lossless Bluetooth audio transmits up to 1Mb/s.
So, a three minute internet search supports rather apples story than yours.
Hooray, I guess?
How does this score with the new repairability requires in ie France or California?
I use my PlayStation primarily to use streaming services. Do I get the right to repair it?

If nobody speaks up we rely on you to do the test.
So the argument is security by obscurity works?
Oh damn maybe I should sell mine while it’s still on support. Although it’s from 2020. Hmm.

Gotta use what you have.
