Yes, Future Proof explains the #BaitAndSwitch (the #RazorBladeBusinessModel) in a vlog you can get to through 'the emboldened link(s)' below; but first–after a mention of the free mining-software (giving us free Bitcoin in exchange for energy we're wasting anyway)–I want to teach you about those words. And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)
The word |Keurig| is built on a word that means "Excellence."
#KeurigMachine
Coffee #Pods (a.k.a. #KCups) are little cups one loads into one's Keurig Machine to brew a cup of coffee.
The word |Pods| (also a word for a Group of Whales or -|Seals) is built on ancient words that mean "|Husk of Seeded Plant (Legume, Elongated Seed Vessel of Beans, |Peas, etc.)" (the "Episodic |Series of Spoken-Word Digital Audio Files that can be |Downloaded to a Personal Device & Listened-to at Leisure"-word #Podcast is a portmanteau of the name of Apple's Device (iPod) & Broadcast).

The "Bait-and-Switch" is a scam in which the buyer is Baited (with Advertising Photos or -Promises) into buying one product, and then either being sold a Switched product (usually More-|Expensive, like an Upgrade) or being forced to Pay More-than-they-Bargained-for (e.g. a Subscription or a |Series of Replacement |Razors, |Refills ... similar to a Rick-Roll ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ).
