They do add value: convenience. Sometimes for people without the bandwidth,
sometimes because they forward part of their proceeds to SPI or something
(if I wanted to do that I'd be forced to wrestle with some international
bank bureaucracy I better don't describe here).

I've chosen to pay for "something which is free", often for the second
reason, thus helping make it possible for you to download things for
free.

You're welcome.
