I understood why there was an ebook being hosted on GitHub (since they were still making changes to the source code), but this is just wrong. They are making GitHub pay for the distribution costs of their MP3s.
This sort of abuse (along with using DropBox as a CDN) needs to be stopped. It isn't a new cool way of doing things; it is draining the wallets of services we know and love.

A fair criticism, so I went ahead and bought a micro account-- i think I was pushing the soft limit anyway.
That's what ToS and acceptable use policies are for. Problem solved.
