All companies are pushing for cost cutting measures, but some see that value of a better product in getting more customers. I agree with what others have said - there is still quality out there, you just need to find it in a sea of cheap knockoffs.
I probably spent 50 hours researching and looking at reviews/display models of different TVs before I bought my big flatscreen HDTV. I love it, especially when I see all the crappy sets lined up at Walmart. I could have had the same quality from Sony instead of Samsung, but wasn't willing to pay twice the price. It's a trade off in products vs. brand name cost. I don't usually buy from Sony, Apple, etc.
Some companies are still mostly reputable. HTC for phones, Dell (mostly) for laptops when compared to Toshiba/HP/Compaq, Toyota and Honda vs Ford/Kia/Chrysler. You just need to take the time to research to find the best options.
