We don't buy crap headphones.

We take care of our headphones, ours don't show any degradation after only 1 year.

We replace the pads long before they get anywhere near this bad.

Every pad is user replaceable if you're brave enough.

Can still be done, just have to know how and use the right stuff. There are others (Audeze if I recall correctly) that do glued pads.

It did/does. However with an exact-o knife and some patience its rather easy.
And you can 3D print pad "frames" so you can pop them on and off. I did some 3D printed frames on my X2HR as well so I can swap between the stock and some brainwavz pads on the fly.

I've had headphones for 10 years that don't look like that. Almost all from Sony, but I had a razer gaming headset that I used for teleconferences for like 6-8 hours per day 5-6 days per week for two years without any noticable degredation, too.
There are some headphones (like the nurophones, for example) which use silicon instead of leather or fabric.
Finally, there are pad covers which you can buy to keep the actual pads from getting sm sweaty or dirty.
