A source of problems

What is the value? A question that is answered by another: What is valued?
I was thinking earlier about the music industries current conflict with piracy. I, myself, use iTunes to "share" music and I was wondering why I felt zero guilt getting free music. Then I recalled the price of CD's. Sure I could listen to the radio, but in this area the stations play either rap or country or gospel. I like some of the genres, but not all the time nor as a personal preference. So, I use the internet to feed the inner-indie. Sure I could sign up for one of the music dealers (i.e. buy one get twelve free). However, that still requires the money I need for advanced education. Yet another value question. Why is tuition shooting for the moon?
Answered by the word for today: GREED. Prices climb so profits can climb. Why do you think they call them piggy banks? What can be done for this? Sure there could be a law that profits cannot exceed a certain percent or a tax specifically for cutting down on profits. That won't work.
Consider this: The degree of a companies or a countries greed can be measured by its product's affordability. Now, do you want to support something that has more concern for profits than its customers? There is the solution.
Don't supply the greedy, demand reasonabilty!!
