Pricing like this has always made me wonder if there's some behind the scenes deals going on, where the web and font designer work together to sell some deep pocketed corporation on a site redesign that uses an expensive font, then split the recurring revenue. This likely would work in that case, as font licensing would be some small line item on the final bill. In moving previous employer away from an expensive designer who charged thousands of dollars a month to host a <100k/pageviews a month site that had minimally modified wordpress, they couldn't ever come up with valid license for the fonts used, so I also wonder if the licenses are ever actually enforced.
