I do not believe at all that this is the reason.
Reasons I have heard from people is giving back (other made somethin available and I give back by making something else available) or that they think that it is better for thing to be available easily. In some parts of the sub culture it is also a "competition". You get higher status the more you make available. The competition people seems to hang out on closed hubs or other non-public places.
