No wai! That would be too much like those French sissies, and *nobody*
wants to be like them! ;)

(If you don't know what I'm talking about, find "France" on this chart:

The real problem is that nobody wants to trust something that you get
for free. There's a certain irrational sense of security to be had by
paying for something rather than downloading it from the internet.
People will always trust their instincts, no matter how arbitrary they
may be, before an actual, educated opinion. Go figure.
