I know, that doesn't make much sense. However, if you look at the authors that Tor is releasing this way, all of them have released works for free before. Mercedes Lackey and David Drake both through Baen, Walton and Scalzi through their own web pages (Old Man's War was originally an online free e-book that Patrick Nielsen Hayden liked), Robert Charles Wilson released Spin as a free download to Hugo voters, and Buckell has the first third of Crystal Rain up for free on his web page. So, there's no new players, just a different avenue.
