It is becoming increasingly common for companies to place focus on the novelty of their products. In my opinion, this has its basis in the psychology of consumer behavior and is generally a negative development.

In their advertising, businesses today often promote the idea that there is something new in their products. I believe they do this because it can help them beat their competitors.
