they don't really have an ongoing per-customer costs, right?
so long as they extract the all the money you're willing to pay them, be it $20 or $90, that's fine. i expect they worry more about total customer count.
- koolba 8y agoThey probably have per user pricing with some of the content sources so there would be some cost. There is also the cost of having a call center contact deal with the renewal every 6 months. 20 min on the phone costs at least a couple bucks.

Anyone with this knowledge can easily get the service for $7 forever. Or you can start infinite trials and get infinite free books.
