Not really more time. When someone wants to force me into a price quote I know that they are trying to monopolize my time with a sales call or the very least a lengthy e-mail chain. That's a lot of time.

Meanwhile companies like Fog creek (Fog Bugz), Zen Desk, Atlassian, and a host of others just sell me the damn software that I want without a huge sales hassle.

They also happen to be the companies that I actually use.
