I think the problem is primarily legal rather than cost.
Adobe can certainly find plenty of FTP sites that are willing to
maintain the archive for them with no cost to them.
And, the FTP sites and mail server do not have to be mutually
exclusive.

I once inquired about uploading a few of Adobe documents to
an FTP site, and an Adobe person replied that they don't
(their legal department doesn't) allow this.
She didn't tell me the reason for this, and I didn't ask.

As for me, I don't have any gripe about the mail server.
It works well for me, although I would do FTP if the stuff
were available that way.
