Poor example. Those sites offer nothing but shopping, if you are there you are already shopping.
Better example, broadcast TV. Do we expect the networks to put on (pay for) the show without showing commercials? Of course not, they wouldn't stay in business and we'd soon have no more networks. Television is not a charity, it is a business.
PP is not a charity either. The BB is here to promote PP, the business. Wayne doesn't need to apologize for that.
Didn't the idea of "everything-on-the-internet-is-free" die with all the dotcoms?
