The simple reason is that the single serve package makes the good margin contribution for the bottlers in water. They make no money on the cases of water at all. If they reduced the single serve price, they would have to raise the case price. It is simple economics.

Why does a suitcase of bud light cost $20 but they charge you $4 for 1?
Because you're drinking in a bar and they have overhead, but that is still out of line for a Bud Light.
