Ask Elon Musk why the price of being a space passenger is so high, when the cost of driving is so (relatively) low.
The cost of anything being launched into space is going to be much more right down to what the customer pays. Also have to factor in the ground facilities and cost to maintain and man them.
I think I can speak for everyone when I say we'd all love to have a bill comparable to ground based Internet like $30-50/month. Just ain't gonna happen with satellite, at least no time soon if ever.
And please don't make comparisons to satellite TV, very different systems.
