I pay for access to their faster servers and have never received CDs or Manuals
from them (and don't expect to).

Regardless, you can still charge for GPL'd software providing you meet the
other requirements of the license, namely making the source available to
anyone you sell/distribute the binary too.  You are NOT under an obligation
to distribute the source to anyone who has not received the binary package,
though anyone who does receive the source is not under obligation to keep
it secret....
