While you don't have to say flat-out "by the way, you can get this for
free elsewhere", you do have to do it.

To be specific, you are required to supply a copy of the Apache License
itself along with any redistributed software. The license itself states:

"Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, each Contributor
hereby grants to You a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge,
royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare
Derivative Works of, publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and
distribute the Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form."

Free, free, and free.
