Normally, I'd agree with you. But if you bought the bike at that particular
dealer, AND had all of the services performed there, AND bought all your
tires there, AND bought parts there...you probably get the point. Any
business must balance paying for the equipment and expertise (payroll) with
providing a service for current or potential customers in order to entice
them back to spend more money. My assumption was that he was already a
paying customer. Could be that he was just walking up to a dealer for the
first time...in that case I'd agree that 1/2 hour shop rate would be
appropriate.

I tend to agree. I've never paid for a download, but Ed didn't mention his
relationship with the dealer.
