Well, if you want to pay 600 euros for an album, you can do it regardless. There's no upper limit on bandcamp. By setting a fixed (and ridiculous) price, they just turn off potential customers. It's some extreme wishful thinking to say the least.
Take Cloudkicker for instance. A large percentage of people pay for the music he releases for free (name-your-price). He's one of the biggest bandcampers around. Today paying for anything in digital format is a choice - that's reality, either they like it or not. We need that choice to feel we're actually buying something more than just a stream of megabytes. We are buying ourselves the feeling we supported and thanked the artist, even though we could just enjoy it all for free.
