> Your comments lead me to believe you have skin in the game because you seem determined to not acknowledge that the value of something is what your customers will pay for it.
None what-so-ever, other than having several websites I enjoy that use ads for revenue generation. My current work is in Business SAAS.
> If they aren't willing to pay for it then it has no value in the market, regardless of the value you've assigned to it.
You don't understand markets. If a minority of users aren't willing to "pay" for it, that doesn't make it without value. By your logic, movies are pirated by a minority and thus, they have no value. With movies it matters less because they've compensated for it by charging people that actually pay more and more.
