Why would you link directly to the apk's? If you install the .apk's separably instead of through the Market, you won't get updates. (At least, the Market client won't notify you of them).
the problem is, that people in some countries don't have "paid" market. but for some reason maps, skype, reader and many many other things are included into that "paid" category, even though they're free.
