XDR & Gddr3/4 pricing

Is there any reason as to why XDR/GDDR is/should be more expensive than DDR/2/3? Except that that they "can" be. Bigger dies? More expensive manufacturing tech? Lower volumes, doh, but still not "small".

Where can one find references to spot pricing, IE dramexchange style? Current prices?
 
Lower volume and less competition mostly, but the die size and process used *might* play a role. If you ever find any real data on their real-world pricing difference with DDR2, especially over time, I'd be very interested... :) (so in response to your PM: I don't know!)
