Three points:
First, the home edition is free as in no cost.
Second, Since when was liberty free of cost? Liberty and not cost was the point of open source software. Us Americanos have confused the two and try to make one word work for both. When I try to explain to to my European and Hispanic friends, all I have to do is tell them that the word that applies is "libre" and the confusion immediately leaves for them.
Third, I'll bet that your $60/month gets you better support than what you could collect out of M$.
