I don't know if it's fair to blame Microsoft. The leak probably came from employee(s) at retail stores. Something that Microsoft has no control over.
Anyway, the price is still a bit high but 18% profit for retailer, that is pretty good margin for them. I am sure Microsoft did plenty of marketing research and determined what price point people willing to pay. I recall back when PS1 and Dreamcast day where MU was costing like $30-40 each and those have a fraction of storage even compare to 20gb. May be Microsoft still operate on the old model ....
