I have been hearing that memory suppliers are _intentionally_ not scaling up new factories like crazy because they assume the demand won't be there on the long term and they don't want to have spare unused capacity. Probably because Samsung and SK have a near duopoly on it as well...

At some point the market will be saturated with supply and prices will come down for older gen hardware. It can take years though, but it happened to fiber cable and fiber doesn't even depreciate like chips.
