[Bill Davis] "I believe that's a large part of why FCP-X is only $299. It's still wildly profitably at that price since the bulk of the distribution costs have vanished."
Is it? Or is it just profitable enough because you have to own a Mac running at least 10.6.8 to use it? After all, Apple is a hardware company at heart. I know there are costs w/making a disc, packaging and shipping but I can't imagine that aspect of it for a business the size of Apple is all that much.

I mean isn't that along the same lines as saying a Hollywood blockbuster should be significantly less expensive to make as long it's sold only as a download/stream and not as DVD & Blu-ray?
