I think the pay for play MUD is a lot like a tissue that you're charged to blow your nose with. Sure, you got the tissue for free. You could make a tissue ghost, use it as a finger puppet, clean surfaces, whatever. But if you want to blow your nose, you have to pay ten dollars.

It's limited functionality, maybe one day you just need to pick up a bug with it, but if you want to do all the really cool stuff with that tissue, namely, blowing your nose, you have to pay ten dollars.

Maybe that's not the best analogy, but it's the best I can do on a limited time frame.
