Dead right. Cheapness also lowers wages. Think on it...
Perhaps instead of the IFA ineffectually imposing standards, we ought to have a government agency doing it. Then it would have some teeth and would be able to legally enforce standards and do useful things like standarising recording systems.
I'd have much rather have had EH do this than the IFA private members club.
