If AzuraCast is free and open source, why do I have to pay for hosting?

AzuraCast is Free and Open Source Software, so no license is required. However, running an internet radio station requires powerful dedicated servers with high-speed 1GB internet, unlimited bandwidth, 24/7 monitoring, backups, and professional infrastructure. Our managed hosting provides all server infrastructure, updates, security patches, and technical support.
