When selling something over priced, and it is sucsessful.. its a good calculated risk. When it fails to meet expectations, its a dumb buisness move and a bad risk. With that said, I agree with your outlook on it.

But either way its cut, its a risk.

Giving away anything for free or at a loss, and expecting it to pay off in the end through other means, is a risk.
