Why is the change from lightning to USB-C so slow after iPad Pro and MacBook (Pro)?!

Mostly because there is absolutely no reason to push USB-C into products that don't need it. At all. And for which USB-C gives absolutely no advantages, and a lot of disadvantages.

AirPods Pro is such a product.

Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) tracks ALL of your data, because they built the infrastructure that every company uses.  Who really cares - Seriously

First of all, this isn't true and reveals a lot of ignorance. Second, a lot of people care, and it's not really your job to speculate about who cares and who does not. This is a serious issue.

The fact that people don't associate the card with GS, but rather with Apple, is probably like 99% of the reason for the satisfaction level being as high as it is.

I have to agree with BeoW here Jeff.  The Apple Card is great because of Apple not GS, wait until you have to dispute or ask for reimbursement of a charge.  I had an item stolen (or rather mis-delivered) by the  USPS.  Despite providing extensive documentation of the event to GS, my charge was not refunded.  This surprised me as my Amazon Card has done this for me in the past with internet fraud.

I have had to dispute charges before. I had a great experience both times. I'm sorry that you didn't have similar luck, though.

That's nonsense, and you're obviously not an Apple Card user. The high customer sat rating is because, duh, customers are satisfied. They're satisfied because the entire experience is so great. No fees of any kind, not even late fees, great service, a premium app to manage the card, the card itself is physically gorgeous, no constant spam emails or promotions. It's perfection. That's why the rating is high.

I'm no expert, but don't most movie distributors, including Apple, purchase movies and properties after they have been funded, filmed and finalized by private producers? If so, it's not really the distributor who should get the credit for all the awards.

In the case of TV shows, it's probably just the pilot episodes that are funded privately, after which the producers shop around for a distributor to fund the whole season.

No. 

Not even close to true. Two minutes of research could have answered this for you. The vast majority of Apple TV+ content was funded, conceived, hired for, and supported from the very beginning by Apple.

And so yes, it is Apple who should get the credit. Obviously.
