4. The flip side of course....

...is that the cheaper cost makes these items affordable to a lrger segment of the populace.

Just 5 years ago I was one of the few people I knew who had a DVD player, now practically everyone I know has one.

The problem with a repair shop is how do you pay a guy a decent wage to do repairs while he has to spend time on labor and parts for something that costs only $100 retail or even $200.
