I haven't spoken to them; my message was prompted merely by seeing their 
leaflet. So I have no idea.

It depends on how much people care about the law, and the risk of 
getting sued. Although it's illegal to photocopy/screenshot commercial 
maps, for many uses it's not worth the copyright holder pursuing it. And 
so the only restraint is the morality of the map user. So perhaps some 
people might be willing to pay. How much, I have no idea.
