Maybe he means

What's paying for Winzip get you that the freebies don't already offer. Just having XP give the ability to zip and unzip files. Winzip offers nothing. People only use because it's free if you ignore the shareware bit. They don't even need to use it. So techinically that would be pissing the user off. Offer something and charge might be better.

Now if you want to pay for compression utilities try Winrar. It's at least worth it.
