A tactic which is performed by a corporation to deliberately put a problem into one of their products under the consumers nose in the hope that month's later the purchaser of the product will have to send it back for repairs thus giving the corporation more money due to fixture payments. This move has most recently been made famous by The Red Ring of Death on Microsoft's Xbox 360
"God Damn it, My 360 got the E74 error! Don't tell me I've gotta spend more bucks for a problem that Microsoft already know is happening!"
"Dude, Don't ya know? It's just another Corporation Tactic!"

Get the Corporate Nunmug. Corporate Punk describes punk bands or punk fashion brands created by corporate businesses that are more interested in making money than spreading a message.
