Listening to music costs $10 per month. Netflix is $15. Surely securing the keys to your digital life is worth at least $5.

Both of those are insanely expensive to create (movies, tv, and commercial music) and bandwidth intensive.

1pw can count the average users bandwidth in kilobytes per month. And while the software is refined, it’s about 1/1000th the complexity and infrastructure of Netflix or Spotify.

I think it’s worth $70, maybe $100. But I want to own my software, not rent it.
