The price is simple. The factories that make the branded versions are based in China and work say 9-8. Out of hours another crew comes in and makes the exact same item without the branding and flogs it cheaply.
The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.

Some of that for sure...

Also.

When the electronics company I was selling to in the UK moved production to China, they stopped buying our products (just copied them) and didn't bother with fancy things like software licences...  evil:
