To build something similarly sized with the free version of Mongo would also be expensive. It's a trade off.
There's a lot lacking with DocumentDB, as evident from the feedback forum, that comparing it to Mongo is like comparing an infant to an adult. The infant might be cute, but it can't do a whole lot.
