MY that's barbaric!
first we had to pay money to install software, now we have to pay money to USE software? shall we need to acquire a license to LEARN about software next?

from a service standpoint, i can understand why it would cost money- you'd need servers to host that at the expense of your company instead of the client.
but why would you do that? i'd think that practically, it'd only have a very limited usage.
