think of it this way, if you designed the typeface, or converted a non digital typeface into a digital font, would you give it away for free? or would you like to be paid for all your hard work that went into digitizing the typeface?
Before we had the computer and type was hand-set, the printshop would have to buy each individual font if they wanted a typeface family (font meaning one size and one weight per typeface, numerals and caps sold seperately)
Today, we can buy a typeface family for a mere couple hundred dollars (for the more expensive fonts) as opposed to paying the same price for a few sizes and weights of a typeface.
with this said, i hope you realize that $22.00 for a typeface is a steal.
