Quote - "more like they are charging what they should be after years of artifically low prices."

*What causes a rise for bits and bytes? The ever sinking cost of storage space? More talented people flooding the market?

 

 *no simple economics. each hour you spend making an item, you are spending 1 hour you could have been working. so, here the minimum wage is £6.10. so 10 hours on a set, thats £61.00. now to break even, you need to make £61.some sets can take 50 - 60 hours to make... and never reach back their investment due to the artifically low market.

now many will say "but use free software it does not cost you anything..." it does. I'm still paying Electricty etc.

*those that say "but your a hobbyiest" is that an excuse? would you tell the man in the electrical shop, that TV thats £450, it should be £4.5, cos he's a hobbiest? no. you would'nt. so lets stop insulting those merchants that work damned hard to make things to sell here and in other poser stores.

I'm not saying that things should be expensive. I'm saying the creators should get a fair price.. not be told something should be priced and next to nothing and never make it's intial outlay back.

in the non digital world, doing that has a name. it's called Bankrupcy.
