First of all the freebies are only licensed for personal use. And I
don't think it's so much the cost as the functionality. A large
organization wants to be able to install and maintain on multiple
machines over a network with as little cost as possible. I think that's
what the professional packages are selling. A free edition would be much
more expensive in practice. For all I know the definitions update may be
the same for both personal and institutional editions. Also the free
personal editions are a foot in the door for an upgrade path to a
version tarted up with "features" of dubious utility.
