Profit, profit, profit. When "financiers" get a hold on such technology it will instantly become much more difficult to reproduce and its availability very limited. You know, offer/demand and what not. Or in something that cheap?

At last production of artificial organs and tissues will be possible on large scale. I've always said 3D printing was the future of biotechnology! :)   This is great news!
