They run the site IMHO for reasons included but not limited to the following:
1) to get income from paid up members
2) to get income from paid up traders
3) to expose their own targeted advertising engine to a larger audience
4) to gain exposure for thier own brand
5) to stop someone else having control of this valuable bit of web real estate

(not in order of importance)



Im sure there are more reasons too, would you like to add some of your own martin if you know much about it?
