Funny, I recall billing one of my last clients significantly more than almost zero to develop an app for them. Apps cost real money to build, and real money to maintain.

Sorry, I'm not sure I understand the context of your comment.

Are you pointing out that the upfront cost of digital content is high? Because, if that's the case, I entirely agree. I'm simply saying that the marginal cost of digital goods is close to zero, so theft of such goods is only a problem if it's done in lieu of purchasing them.
