It costs nearly £70! Shocked

They certainly make a quick buck from selling these fonts Mad

Where can you get it for free?

Well they do spend a amazing amount of time creating these fonts.

They might spend ages but I don't feel that it justifies charging nearly £70 for it though. It only makes the font accessable to businesses and people that have lots of cash in their pocket.

£70 is quite a lot of money to many of us - would you like me to take £70 of your cash and burn or deface it in front of you so that you can't use it?

Well they've spent their time and money to make the font, a font which you want, which effectively makes it worth the money that they are charging for it.
Why should they just give it away free, that isn't good business sense at all.
