Interesting...no one has mentioned cost. How can you sell it for a price, any price, before you consider cost? That, and that alone is the deciding factor. If you can't sell it for a price that covers not only cost, but the profit needed to continue making the product you might as well give it away to start with. The question then, what is the cost?
