Last time we offered to distribute Netscape via our system and
be a mirror site and provide resources for free, Netscape wanted
to charge us $6000 and $20 for each copy we give out. That policy
does wonders for a tiny company like ours.

As a comparison, a VP of a `very popular windows mail program'
personally waived all fees so we could distribute his program
in our disks.
