I don't trust the market to naturally correct itself as it is not permitted to do so when all mainstream players do everything in their power to not let that happen through collusion and price-fixing. When the choice is buy A at a price you can't afford/justify or do without, and A is the only thing on the market...consumers have no choice.

And sure, they can do without, BUT, as artists are so fond of saying, art is a necessity of a society and for personal happiness etc.

(I do agree that sellers should be able to set their own price-points, but vendors are also able to say, it won't sell at that price, so I don't want to waste my virtual shelf-space. It's hard, though, when all sellers agree to a set-price and artificially remove the ability of the market to adjust).
