The phone analogy is bad as it's hardware which depreciates quickly. Like I could have bought an iPhone six (easy example) for $200 on contract from my carrier last year. Now my friend can buy an upgraded iPhone 6s with some new stuff for the same price. Who gets mad about that?
Did you play the crap out of borderlands 2? How do you feel about the handsome jack collection? N00bs save over $100!
Halo MCC? Wtf? Value for older software? /shakesfist!
Skyrim Legendary Edition.. Don't get me started! I paid for those dlcs individually! How dare they sell it at Walmart for $40!
Movies: value packs? Wtf! Collection sets? Heck no! I paid full price and enjoyed them for years! How dare others get to save some cash and enjoy them?
It's a business practice. Deal or do something else...

I like your iPhone analogy... Follow along... What if his new iPhone 6s, were less than half the price of your iPhone 6, it comes upgraded, and he gets an iPhone 6 as well for no extra costs. Don't forget, he's paying less than half for all that, and you've just been stuck with the old 6. Now wait a minute, you could go ahead and get the same deal as your buddy, right? The upgraded 6s and the free 6 as well... But into the same deal if you like. All my post is getting at, is just because it's how they do it, doesn't make it 'right'.

Your analogy still doesn't work. Maybe if you were using the items of iPhone 1 to 5 (for original game and SLC) and the 6 for the TTK. Then it makes a better analogy but still a bad one overall. I bought the game for $40 on Xbox live around March '15 then the season pass for $40. Are you made that I "saved" $20 on the original game and still have characters at or near max level? The original is considered old content and has deprecated. Get over it. Same as these 2 expansions by the time TTK is available. Again, get over it.

Buy destiny is software. Again hardware depreciates much faster. There are lots of deals one can get for new subscribers, but apple and the cell carrier will get their money. Go back to the media examples. Are those fair?
