You still did not get my point.
Even the users can download the IE free , but the price of IE is already paid by the users when they bought the OS .
Have you ever heard the advertisement that " If you fill up , then we will offer one
free coupon for car wash " , The price of car wash is being embeded into the higher
gas price", So, if you fill up at may gas station, you already pay for the car wash, I give one so called free coupon to you if you fill up at may gas station, as to if you are going to use it or not it is up to you.If you do not use that free coupon to get a free car wash, then I earn more by charging you with higher price. On the surface, the car wash seemed to be free, but in reality , it is not.
Just like safeway said if you buy two apples for $ two dollars, I will give you one more for free. So technically, you pay $2 dollars for three apples , and you pay
$0.66 for each apple. Or you can say you pay $1 dollar for each apple if you buy two apples, and besides that , you get one more for free. That is just a matter how you explain it. No company will give out anything absolutely free, otherwise they will all close their doors. |
