"Money doesn't grow on trees" is probably the reason. I know that if I were
a downstream site from Apple, and people starting mailing files through in
3 meg chunks (across MY long distance lines), I'd get more than a little
steamed.
Now, a dial in line for anonymous uucp would put the cost back on the people
who want the files, where it belongs.
