>So expensive that I doubt it's possible to make real money that way right now. I don't think anyone is interested in "mak[ing] real money that way right now", they want to get a foothold in, or capture a swath of, a market which definitely will make them money in the future. A tremendous amount if they play it right, even if it means operating at a loss for the next few years.
