This isn't greed. It's incompetence. It sounds like they they've outfitted their planes with high-end internet connections that are typically reserved for private jets. Don't misunderstand me, this is different from the system you use on domestic flights that use ground base stations. Singapore airlines fly everywhere and that sort of ground base station system would never work for them, so getting a connection over international waters isn't cheap. This is like offering business class passengers a 1960 Petrus as the house red wine.
