Sure but there's going to be a range of choices don't you think?

Some are going to gouge and some will be more reasonable.

Obviously the more reasonable people will be seen as more desireable
and if they can balance the need for profit with the demand for
service they will stay in business.

Moreover, as consumers I think it behooves *US* to pass the word both
good and bad about various services so that the good guys stay in
business.

I most definitely don't think that it's a black and white choice
between those who gouge_and_screw their customers and those who go
belly up.
