To me, as someone who charges for training and support as now my way of
making a living, trying to make money off of a products is perfectly fine. It
doesn't matter how little. Every little bit helps. If you put the time and
effort into a tutorial or project, it's your right or choice to decide to
charge for that intellectual property. If people buy it, the better.
I am all for offering time and effort for free. I do enough of that as
well and often don't even charge for some of the training time I give to folks.
Still, business is business. I hate this attitude that some have that there
is something wrong with you if you sell something or try to make money off of a
product. There's nothing wrong with making money. It's up to the public to
decide if a price is "too high". More power to Chris for taking the time to
develop a tutorial and attempting to make a few bucks for himself. Even if he
only sells a few, it's still money he didn't have before and something back for
his effort. I wish him the best of luck and will let people know it exists.
It will be there choice if it's right for them or affordable for them.
