It's like...$1 for a DRM-free song right now, and tbh that's not unfair. Even if I could buy movies DRM-free right now for $10, older movies for $5, that'd be fair; I think. :)

I’m saying the low price would make more money for the studios because it being cheap more people would buy 10x or more of the digital item.

$5 for a movie is still cheap. :)
