Apple will keep charging whatever their marketing department can convince idiots to pay.
Their profit margin has zero basis in the reality of how much it costs to design, build, and market a particular product and is instead a function of how high they can push it until their customer says no.
That's why they have the spare cash to produce goddamn television shows... That they THEN make you pay to watch!
IPhone users have already paid for appleTV a thousand times over. But hey, gotta look cool in front of your coworkers I guess.
