Someone requested the full list of the 500k books to be destroyed by the National Library. (The international collection - because obviously NZers are only ever interested in books about NZ.)
Three days ago the information was provided: in 31 PDFs with a watermark. This is verging on malicious.

In summary, I dispute the accuracy of this first point. They can sustain costs, but they have chosen to put money into managed funds.
The second point is just weird (lack of growth in domains isn't a good reason to put prices up - this isn't a company with investors who must see line go up)
