Demand

The amount of a particular Economic good or service that a Consumer or group of consumers will want to Purchase at a given price. The Demand curve is usually downward sloping, since consumers will want to Buy more as price decreases. Demand for a good or service is determined by many different factors other than price, such as the price of substitute goods and complementary goods. In extreme cases, Demand may be completely unrelated to price, or nearly infinite at a given price. Along with Supply, Demand is one of the two key determinants of the Market price.
