I've taken a couple of courses and paid for one. The reason I paid it was simple - I loved the course, wanted to make a clear commitment that I was going to finish this one (I am poor with finishing projects :/). The $49 for most courses was something which I could afford and it helped in serving as additional motivation. The reward at the end of it all felt good as well!
