I don't care if it's $1000/pound of coffee. I am not buying a pound of coffee. I am buying a convenient, hot cup of coffee that I make by inserting a cup, pressing a button, coming back in a few minutes and throwing the cup away. It's fantastic.

I agree. We get the Sam's Columbian and the convenience.

If I want to brew a specialty cup, I will roast it in my roaster, grind it and choose the proper brewing device for the type of coffee. That all takes time and planning. The K-Cup is a one minute brew affair. That is the draw for the device.

I think Keurig learned a lesson that convenience has a price limit.

Yep. 32 bucks for 80 cups of excellent coffee. 40 cents a cup and no mess.
