This week, we are running a new series where we look at seemingly small adjustments that businesses are making to their offering, and try to reverse-engineer their insights and examine what they mean for us as consumers. Our observations will be followed by questions as we want you guys to pitch in and tell us what you feel about the issue. So go ahead and raid the comments section.
