Buy none, get one free

Is the business model of the future one where the customer no longer pays? Already products in the digital marketplace are being given away free, yet companies are still making profits.

Fortunately we have two different words for this in Dutch, causing less confusion.

'Vrij' means 'free' in the sense of being free, as human, or as object, music or program, free to use.
'Gratis' means 'free' is the sense that you don't have to pay any money.

Disagree. Freedom = Vrijheid.
