If they did pay us then they would be be out of business very quickly due to GW legal coming down on them like a ton of bricks for IP infringement.
You pay a license for the AB software only - it does not entitle you, nor anyone else, to files for any game system. It's a tool for using files other people have created, or you can create your own. Files are available for a huge number of game systems, only a few of which are from GW. GW make no money out of LW, nor do any of the data file authors due to legal issues. You know, you could just write your own software and create your own files for each codex if you really feel that strongly
Also there is no "exclusive" for Army Builder and GW related files - if there was, why was Battlescribe hit with a GW IP infringement notification a couple of weeks ago?
And just to finish off, the GK release is out:
http://www.ab40k.org/filebase.php?d=...&what=c&page=1 Please read the notes, as this release has made major changes to the structure of the Space Marines files too and it's recommend to not overwrite the existing AB40k5 folder for the time being.
