Yeah, because I can give you an EXCLUSIVE license to distribute my content for free
on your domain. You may pay me $500k for this license and now some torrent is
giving out for free what you paid $500k to give away for free to attract surfers.
If I buy exclusive content for my free site that doesn't mean someone can
download it from my site and then build another free site with it.
They need to pay the content producer for that right and since the content is
exclusive the content provider will not give a new license and thus protects my
web site exclusivity and the value of his/her content.
