Please read through the thread, it will make a lot more sense.

For example, if I would book a photographer for my wedding, besides the usual service and album, I would require that he handed me the original photos he took, just for archival purposes. If I would want a print, I would buy it from the photographer anyway, so the CD wouldn't matter.
That may be your intention, but there are plenty of people who would just print them off at Kinko's or Wal-Mart just as easily.

The service and the camera is property from the photographer, but the photos are mine, so it's just fair that the photographer hands them over to me without any ridiculous charge.
No, the photos aren't yours. So, it's not fair that the photographer 'hand' them over. Secondly, the 'camera' is the photographers property, not yours, i have no clue where you got that idea.

Handing over a CD for a fee is NOT a ridiculous charge. If i did that i would basically never sell another photo from that event EVER AGAIN. Meaning, it's a net loss for the photographer.

I'm sorry Filipe, but you are way off base.
