Never gonna happen. My brake and power steering fluid gets changed once a decade, whether it needs it or not.
Nobody else is going to change their brake fluid once per year either. It's either too costly, or too time consuming.
Brake calipers are cheap, and it's less costly if they have to be replaced once in the course of vehicle ownership than to do a yearly fluid change.
My car is approaching 9 years and 100,000 miles, and I'll be replacing the coolant, power steering fluid, brake fluid, and gear oil. After that, I probably won't touch it again until 200,000 miles.
