let the free market sort it out. The seller is perfectly entitled to 
charge for the service of downloading, burning and posting a CD to 
someone. That is how Richard Stallman started out selling tapes of Emacs 
(Emacs being Free Software, getting it posted to you on a tape being 
$100). Whether or not someone perhaps on dialup feels it is worth a few 
quid to get a CD is up to them.
