They dont need too, however they own the company and they are in it to make a profit.
What this site often thinks is that all ISP's are charities. I was hoping people would understand that.

said by Mdoc :Why? Do they understand engineering disciplines? Do they have to? When I worked as a tech for Hewlett Packard, I had to consider the profitability of my actions, as well as the technical disciplines. If I couldn't repair a $75 assembly in under an hour, it wouldn't matter if it was repairable, or not; it wasn't profitable.
