[QUOTE="Turjan, post: 2179661, member: 3477"] Oh, you can extend that statement to quite a lot of products. Volume doesn't say anything about quality (let's not get into this topic ;)). Page count doesn't say anything about word count (layout varies vastly in this regard). It doesn't say anything about the nature of the contents, either (some people like art in products, others couldn't be bothered less). The answer to the question what makes a product enjoyable and worthwhile will be different for every individual. My statement to recent pdf prices from further above conerned some run of the mill products that hit the market recently (with 'run of the mill' I don't mean that the products don't contain any original ideas, but that it's the usual fare of campaign supplements; no derogatory meaning intended here). Things like that nifty spreadsheet are a different category :). Lastly, a product is priced appropriately (or too low :D) as long as it sells. From the view of the producer, it should obviously cover his expenses. But in the end, monetary value is set by the buyers. [/QUOTE]
