“Violation of the age,” says a friend of a digital camera Leica M9 Titanium. The camera was only made 500 units, for collection. Oh, “collector’s edition” is a generic term. This means that the goods remain functional, able to function according to their duties. It’s just that the price far exceeds the capabilities.

Violates the time, because he thinks the current digital era that allows mass production easier. In the end the cost per unit is lower. So the selling price is cheaper. It does not deserve any expensive goods. Is if I superrich will also buy the camera? I do not know. Hope does not. Whether using expensive cameras mean more shots of my beautiful.

Let me instead ask: whether to use pen above USD 1 million to make better handwriting? Or this: whether gas lighters USD 3 million to make more healthy smokers, passive smokers as well?

For me the price for consumer goods is not about. Throughout the consumers have a choice what’s the harm? This is similar to Vertu phones that cost thousands of dollars, while Samsung Galaxy Mini to be USD 1.35 million students. In terms of performance, Android is clearly more victorious.

Whose name is the physical packaging, with all its branding strategy, is part of the civilization that makes life more rich. In case this is not all it is only seen from the functional aspect, so that the cover body is not enough of the leaf.

So I can understand why though MP3 easily available, including by illegal means, it is still the official CDs are still sold (and the box set could be worth USD 2 million). Even the LPs were not yet extinct, though the price of the plate can players hundreds of millions of dollars.

Indeed, digital technology products could make the price continues to memurah. This is partly because a number of mechanical function has been passed by the chips that can be made in bulk. But when it comes to packaging, not just a mass of plastic, then the challenge of art and design deserve the price. Analog and digital watches Prices vary, but the same function.

Even at low levels even humans do not want to be considered generic. See, the casings for mobile phones and skins for your laptop or tablet should be obtained by purchase. This means that there is a fee. What’s that violates the time?

If you do not want to be called infringe times then everyone just buy plain T-shirts combed without labels; do not need the product distributions for Rp 150,000 and above.
