At that price, the main reason not to pay is the hassle rather than just downloading. Thanks for the context about the revenue of Firefox. I had never given it any though.

Don't forget $2 in USA buys you different things than in Russia, China, India, or Africa.

They have on their donations a monthly donation. That's hassle free. You can also donate to them through Amazon smile.
