Does $20 get you a disk and laser printed manual? Or is that for the download option? $20 for physical media doesn't seem that bad to me -- convenient actually.

As for the terminal and compression programs, Syndicomm doesn't own all the software they sell, they (are supposed to) pay royalties to the original authors. I don't know who sets those prices or how they're determined in the first place, or how compensation is set. If you want those to be be free, contact the author and ask them to reclassify it.
