I'm no Oracle user/expert, but isn't Oracle DB 11g free (as in beer)? So my take is he's not paying anything.
AFAIK, its only free for your initial development work. As soon as you deploy a production app, you have to get support, and as soon as you have a support contract, you can no longer run any free instances, except the lightweight 'express' version which is limited to very small databases with only a few connections and doesn't have any of the enterprise functions.
