While some of what you say is true, some free hosts vary from eachother just as much as pay hosts do.
Believe it or not, but I have even come across a few free forum hosts that let's you save backups to your computer for FREE!!!
The common misconception is that free forum hosts give you very little control or access to backups etc., and many hosts do fit that description.
Some however, offer much more freedom than others.
