The questions are: What is a reasonable price? Who determines it? What factors are included? What weight is each given? Does the market agree? etc.

We each place different values on what our labor is worth. Look at artwork as an example. A Jackson Pollack painting sells for millions of dollars. How many of us have said that we, too, can toss paint on a canvas. While I wouldn't pay $10 for a Jackson Pollack or Andy Warhol painting (except to turn around and sell it ), many people will gladly pay millions.

Just because you won't pay $1 for someone's music doesn't mean the price is unreasonable in the marketplace; it is only unreasonable to you. That it is unreasonable to you does not justify piracy of the product.
