@Childrenofhurin I'm not saying there are no costs to running a company. I'm just saying there are a lot less costs when the product you are selling isn't physical but digital and can be copied instantly and free of charge.
Advertising can be costly but again EA tends to overdo it with advertising hence the overpriced packs. But servers and customer service for a company like EA and a franchise like the sims are really ridiculously low costs. There are indie developers who own servers and have customer service.
With the Kits there is also not any more work to be done in the future. Maybe a tweak or two but in general nothing big.
If you order a pizza the next day though the staff will have to use new ingredients, and take time to cook it and deliver it to you. The also pay rent (equivalent servers) and have to advertise and have to pay staff etc.
But focusing on the products again and not anything else, the digital copy is by miles cheaper than the physical product.
