Technically you're paying for the brand.
People use the beats as a fashion accessory, so if they want to spend the money let them...
Beats also puts useless metal in the headphones just for weight so that it feels like premium headphones.

but yeah I hear you
Toothpaste and terminals
When we look at the potential of Apple buying or investing heavily in McLaren, most are unanimous in thinking Apple is unlikely to get into the business of making or even caring about supercars, and we're not going to see an Apple F1 team. But there's far more to McLaren than that. For instance, did you know that when you come into land at Heathrow, the gate you find yourself is determined by McLaren's technology? It analyses which planes are landing and when, and optimises gate selection to get people out of the airport more quickly.
In recent years, the company has directed its knowledge of extreme efficiency into other industries through McLaren Applied Technologies, a division that brings racing innovations to more mundane scenarios. In one quirky example, MAT was brought in to add some pit-lane insight into GlaxoSmithKline's toothpaste production line. GSK wanted to shorten the amount of time it took to switch which specific type of toothpaste was being put into the tubes - a process which took 39 minutes. With McLaren's help, they got that down to 15 minutes. It meant an extra six million tubes could be made each year. That and additional manufacturing cost savings meant GSK earned an extra £100m.

Yep, they were designed to be more of a fashion statement. It's absolutely brilliant, and A+ marketing. Give celebrities to wear them, be diverse in your marketing and create an elite culture surrounding the headphones. Aka You're not buying the headphones
You're buying a membership into a VIP club, before it gets saturated at least. It's the same strategy used by many entrepreneurs, from the creators of facebook to Instagram
From a sound quality standpoint you're better off buying other headphones..lol
