For the same reason, I suspect, that Apple is hosting a page of Mac 
Applications, and heavily-pushes third-party applications in it's retail 
stores, and the same reason that developers around the world are excited 
that the iPhone will have a built-in appstore.

Distribution matters. Users don't buy/install a product because of it's 
inherent properties, they install it because it solves a need. 
Freenet/Fproxy alone don't solve very many people's need, but Thaw, 
Freemail, etc are services that people find useful.
