And some children's game publishers (knowing that children would damage the media) also offered replacement CDs at a nominal charge. To me there is a difference between free enterprise and capitalism. Capitalism is when all capital is in the hands of the few. Free enterprise defines itself.
Then that is a spontaneous gift from the vendor in question.
