Believe what you like, but at some point the product becomes a "commodity" - its well-known and further piracy doesn't contribute to publicity. Then it'd be nice to switch models (which is of course impossible).


You can't switch models so you choose the model with the largest lifetime net benefit.


Sure. That happens when all 7 billion people on Earth know about your product. For which products do you think all 7 billion people know about it?


You think most products appeal to all 7 billion? Or do they have a subset market that can get saturated.
