This is not about understanding of the industry. Its simple marketing with offer and demand. They have to abide by it, like every market does. There just is no avoiding it. If the consumer doesnt want your product then you go make a different product that he wants. Its that simple, and its what cliffy and microsoft cant understand. They bend this rule to: we will force the consumer to buy our product by any means necessary. The problem isnt the product, the problem is the consumer.
Sorry, it just doesnt stick. Inside knowledge of the industry has nothing on this basic premise.
