Comment (by oglekler):

 I think alongside with @audrasjb, if information will be uploaded
 automatically, and it is actually invisible to user who is uploading it,
 the user can miss it and land with something unwanted or unexpected. If a
 picture was bought, there can be a lot of keywords to optimize search
 visibility of this image where it was purchased and also authors
 attributes and links to buy more.
