Please, lets end this silly attempt by anyone, not just one person, to justify the constantly increasing prices I'm not trying to justify it. I think the pricing is ridiculous.

Outlining the drivers of costs isn't justification, but you shouldn't ignore that manufacturers in the last year or so have begun to see the importance of their IP when it comes to gaming, and that in turn will equate to them charging more for the rights to use that IP in games.

I would much prefer paying $5 an update than what we have now. However, I think I wouldn't even be happy with $5 per update as the game play is repetitive and boring, and since there isn't a compelling multiplayer platform, there isn't really are reason to keep current. I would also prefer a subscription-like set-up. But then EA/FM would be forced to provide a product that actually performs and without bugs. Even at only $5.00/month, I don’t think people would tolerate the current shenanigans.
