It doesn't matter
whether you're training someone to breathe or fish, you're still
training him - and that's a service. A lot of courses on stupid things
cost much higher.
I'd rather go for a course on Audio Engineering with Gratis software
than one with "industry-standard" software bundles. Software is only
part of the equation - hardware, knowledge, techniques, skill and talent
play bigger roles. Someone who can teach you those tricks of the trade
deserves more than just beer.
Don't get me wrong. I agree with you. To take an example from my
professional surroundings:
