Elfwreck I almost always agree with your posts, but not this time sir.

"Not so much a failed model, I think (although it's got some serious problems) as one that doesn't apply to a new market."

True, yet can you truly say that a model that plans on 60% of all physical product being produced will be destroyed, remaindered, stripped, or dumped as not being failed?

Let me put it this way, would you buy a new Ford car if you knew that 60% of the cars off the line would be scrapped? Even if the product itself is good, they are WASTING 60%. The cost of that 60% is coming out of your pocket every time you buy from them.

Fix the model, cut the costs, reduce the price, sell more units.
