The price you pay for WHAT?  The price I paid for Archon and Artic Fox was
well over $50.  I was expecting to be able to continue playing them for a
while longer than one OS rev, or I wouldn't have shelled out the bucks to
EA.  I really hate their "all our customers are pirates/we don't need to 
support our software after its initial shipment" attitude.
