I especially like the aim to become a one-stop update shop for many different programs and distributions. If they made it free, I could easily imagine someone undermining their business by providing the same services using the same software. It would just point to their own package archives for updates. Maybe I'm missing something. However, this isn't different from supporting any other GPLed software.
