There is a good argument made by marketers like Seth Godin and Chris Anderson (esp. in his new book Free: The Future of a Radical Price) that Free can make you money, and I believe in that. Instead of paying for something with money, people may pay with their time, their engagement, their own consumer generated content, etc. But someplace along the line, there needs to be an exchange of value for value: somebody has to pay the hard costs.
