    I am sure BMW’s TOS has a sentence in there somewhere that they are your daddy once you sign up and this is binding forever. Looks like that means they are a service provider for life.

    Also… isn’t a subscription for heated seats means they provide a live service that we need to pay regularly to maintain?

      All very true, BMW is a very scummy company lately.

      My argument was that primarily, BMW is a manufacturer of a product. It would be a better analogy to a modem company being sued for the content that was transmitted through their device.

      Side note, I think the feature unlock trend in cars is the worst possible thing.
