A friend asked me an interesting question: what available, commodity software has the highest ratio of "cost per license / bytes"? He guessed Bloomberg terminals, I guessed kdb+. Anybody have good leads? (I know SaaS and annual licenses make this wonky, we're doing ballpark)

they should have switched to per-transistor licensing YEARS ago

That would be unfair because some transistors switch more current than others. Per-electron pricing!

These things are only $15,000 per core if you want to buy online with no sales process. It’s like the MSRP of a car, which nobody pays.
