I think the vast majority of large corporations simply don't care what customers think of their brands - because they have high market control and run an artificial scarcity model. 

Airlines and concert promoters are perfect examples.   You pay what they demand or you don't fly/go to the show.  Ever more companies and restricting supply in similar fashion. With so many pubs closing, I'm not surprised some are trying this.
