Re: [OM] Discontinued lenses

Aside from spare parts I think that destruction of unsold merchandise 
is pretty routine in industrial societies.  The discontinued stuff is 
competition for the new model. Destruction of spare parts has the 
same effect. If you make fairly reliable equipment the few customers 
who are really ticked by not being able to fix the old stuff are far 
outnumbered by the ones who replace it because they want the latest.
