And some points in the article posted by the OP are rather valid. You're more prone to pay $$ for a service when you know what it will look like. You'll hesitate less to spend your bucks for a book from an author you've already read.

And as for the $4 cup of coffee epithet, I find it ineffective at convincing anyone they're a hypocrite.
At a coffee shop I also pay for the ambience, the service, the wifi connectivity, the "vacation" aspect of having a coffee with a friend (although I often prefer to hang out alone or with my husband).
I also find myself never going for the exaggerated "coffee" so for me it's more like a $2 coffee nursed for an hour at a place with wifi.... works for me.
