I decided to go ahead and take the 79 EUR plunge - sure, would like a lower price,but developers gotta eat! And not really all that much cost - when on holiday can easily spend that much for one night at even a modest hotel.
For bringing an old computer back to life and having some geeky fun with it ... a bargain!
Of course every consumer would want a price (of any product) as close to 0 (zero) as possible, that's a given. No need to discuss that. And honestly, these license fees aren't *feeding* (like: put food on the table) any developers of the OS. But they want *something*, and this is what they ask. If you want what they offer, put the money on the counter, it's as simple as that.
I live in a country where most things are expensive (mostly due to high taxes). To add to your price comparison, I spent more than 79 EUR the last time I filled the tank of one of my two cars.
