This really depends on who is considered to be a customer.
Imagine a street musician who wants every listener to pay money instead of few voluntary contributors. (Would fail - too little reach)
Or a shopping mall / water front/ etc. with an entry fee as an alternative to charging their retailers (without significant wow effect driving people in..)
- danieltillett 12y agoA street musician is not a business. Shopping malls and the like are most definately businesses and they certainly charge their customers (the retailers) a great deal. The whole reason that tech businesses can get away without charging their customers is their customers are not the people using the product. If you are cynical their customers are investors (and they certainly charge them). If you are less cynical the customers are some future user of the product. Tech is certainly an unusual business sector.
