I don't have problems with a site making money on the products that they offer for sale. I have noticed that if you are not a merchant, mod or admin on some sites, you won't get anywhere no matter how hard you try unless you have something in the "shop".
You will never make it to artist of the week. I have noticed that only mods and merchants are showcased as the big stars.
There is nothing wrong with that philosophy, but I don't think that it is fair to the non-merchants.
Also, if you are  a non-merchant, the merchants will have little or nothing to do with you.
This is what I have noticed on pretty much every site, so it is not just on one or two of them.
