I'm just here to post a couple facts to end a couple lines of debate, after which you can carry on in other facets of the conversation. Just trying to prevent an endless loop.
Profit: A financial gain, esp. the difference between the amount earned and the amount spent in buying, operating, or producing something. I.E., the difference between the cost of printing FF6 and what remains = profit.
The level the CD needed to be priced at to fulfill the Kickstarter = $15. If all (then) 1,000 copies of the album had been backed at $15, that would have fulfilled the $15,000 they were seeking, in addition to the other reward tiers which would have continued to excel the kickstarter to the financial heights it has met anyway.
There is no way to rationalize $50 as the "most feasible" pricing option.
