I'm not convinced that these costs are very high seeing as hardly any of the playerworlds people paid to create are very extensive or consume much bandwidth (because they pretty much just have some idling RCs, at most). If you license GServer software (at a lower price than the server rental fees), the number of people who would stop renting servers because they no longer have to could potentially be large, and I doubt that very many people not already renting servers would want to buy the software. Plus there would be piracy concerns.
