He merely put the direct links there as convenience for the MakeUseOf readers to quickly find the direct links to the software. Nothing more. However, we now recognise, thanks to your comments, that the developers deserve the Paypal income and the additional exposure for their website. Therefore we have changed the weblinks accordingly.
