This is a documentary about planned obsolescence. Most of the consumer goods we purchase today are engineered to fail after being used for a predetermined length of time. A printer is a perfect example of this. There is a chip in it that actually prevents the printer from functioning after it has been used a certain number of times.
Its a very interesting documentary and will definitely make you reconsider your role as a consumer. This link is for the version with English subtitles. The documentary is in English but there are moments where people speak German or French and the subtitles are in Norwegian I believe. The Pyramid of Waste Or you can just watch it on Youtube without the English subtitles. --------------------  He who laughs last thinks slowest.
