I think that sometimes it's true that better things cost more. Sometimes it's not. A linux v. mac war could be started over this concept!
I also think it's sad that oftentimes two identical items coming off the same assembly line will sell for vastly different sums based on the nameplate put on them at the end. Like the old Geo Prizm and Toyota Corolla. Or sweatshops that make "designer" clothes AND the cheap knockoffs that sell for 1/10th the price.
