Yea I remember seeing something from earlier today about just having enough subscription users to cover effectively minimum wage.
Maybe when there are more users the price will go down but there was definitely a lot of work put into this upfront and the user base is still much smaller.
People like to forget that this is his job. It's really about supporting the time it takes to develop and maintain sync. Just because it's just a frontend, doesn't mean it's free to maintain.
