Only until you get to a situation of oligopoly or monopoly. Then, the
quality of the product and its price often bear no relation. In that
environment, products are not allowed to thrive on quality - even a
remarkably better product can be squashed simply because of the
stranglehold of the few or single dominant company/companies. Which,
in the end, hurts the general consumer population as a whole, and can
have ramifications that go far beyond just the market (politics, for
instance).
But hey...Atlas shrugged, and so do I, as this isn't the right list
for this sort of discussion. I'm just amazed that, for once, this
wasn't triggered by the topic of accessibility...
