Exactly.

There was a recent story that relates to that.

The band Radiohead put their new album online and gave people the choice of buying it or downloading it for free.

Duh.

What do you think they did? It is not surprising that most people (62%) chose the free download.

Actually, it was very surprising to me that 38% actually paid for it.
