Probably file-size limits. Download and storage servers are extremely expensive to keep running. And when your item is being downloaded a million times (estimate guess for example), maintenance becomes a required and more common thing. Jacking price up as much as 90% by forcing you to increase the number of paid workers for the services. So. Either you end up requiring hundreds (possibly of thousands) in $ gifts to pay for it to stay free. Or your service is kinda limited/garbage. Even those people gotta eat. Do realize only five people getting paid only 2K a month is already 10K. And that's pretty low end these days. Most groups have 25 minimum. So that's 50K in general staff without additional costs added in.
tl;DR Shits expensive as shiiiiit yo.
Plus why do people even need a TL;DR now? Attention spans! Ahhg! I write the full version for a reason.
