You didn't see me doing it, did you?  I hate it, too, so I'm not about to
stand up for it.  The only things I hate more are Vax mail and CI$'s mail.

In the world of information services like GEnie and CI$, $5 is not the
high end, so in relation, yes, it is "cheap", however, in relation to
one's own finances, the difference between $5 and $12.50 an hour may
be negligible.  Some people can't pay even the $5, and some don't flinch
at $7.50 an hour difference.
