  1. @omni Let me try to explain with an analogy; imagine you're electronically-illiterate and you want a radio in your car. In scenario A, you get a car with no radio and you have two choices of radio to purchase in the store. Since you're spending extra on the radio anyway, might as well go all-out and get the more expensive one, right? More expensive obviously == better features, which is a better use of money! (remember, technologically-illiterate) But in scenario B, the car you got comes with a free radio, and the one at the store would cost extra. The one at the store may be better, but if what you have comes with a stereo already, why spend extra? Thus, bundling the radio in for free means it gets more market share, which means the more expensive addon radio won't last as long.
