This sucks. For awhile prices were so great for consumers. Finally thought prices would settle low. I'm already seeing a 50% increase in some products. Some cheap team group 128gb SSD could be had for like $12 last year. I tried to look at prices a few days back and it was about $20 and rising.

From article looks like they don't want to settle at prices before plummet, but at recent peak prices. Shit companies raising cutting output to inflate prices. Car companies are going to be next to follow. They've had to cut prices to sell recently. Once that settles ....

Since this community has already established that piracy* is justified, and we need our SSDs to store all our morally rationalized but illicitly obtained copies of content we enjoy but don't want to spend money on, how do we now proceed? Obviously we won't spend money, it's the entire reason we're pirating in the first place. This leaves us with only one option: we'll have to be modern-day Robin Hoods and shoplift these SSDs, because fuck corporate greed.

BRB, buying winrar stock.
