The thing about public domain books or other permanent freebies is that they'll almost certainly still be there later when you actually want to start them. If you ever actually want to start them. There's no need to download them now.
If it's a short term giveaway, then it's likely to be a self-publisher looking to build an audience, and again, I'd say it's fairly likely that it will happen again. If not, it's probably not very expensive anyway. I'm very picky about freebies these days - and yet they still make up a fair proportion of the recent acquisitions I haven't read - and almost never buy bargains just because they are bargains.
When it comes down to it, I already have plenty of what you're offering, whatever it is.
