The issue is cost. Your costs are disk space for people's archives, instances for people's use, and bandwidth for the fetches and crawls and access.

How can you pay for this if it's free? It's unreliable unless its financially viable.

Totally right, great observation :)

For now it's a free service with a single rate-limited form. Now it's time to work on adding specialty features that are worth paying for.
