This just sounds like a polite way of saying "we're taking peoples' money in exchange for nothing of value, and we can get away with it because they don't know any better".

It's more like: we made loads of stuff super cheap but here's where we make some money because it scales with use.

Price segmentation happens all the time in pretty much every industry.
